NUMBER
Here are some projects where you can use coding to help students practice and better understand concepts found in the Number strand. The examples here are finished projects. Take out the code that you want your students to do, and then share it with them so that they can Remix it and finish it themselves, hopefully making it more interesting and original.
Click the thumbnails for a description and link to each project so that you will be able to see the code.
