What I hope to do with the class generally is help them make connections between coding and abstract models and *real things* that means things you can touch and feel.
Our students need to do more things like using a *physical* spirograph. It's a kind of meditative toy, requires motor control and a kind of focus they don't have much practice with.
You'd think kids would just want to play with the toy and not do the math and code. THAT is not my problem. I have to push them to use the toy!
