Homeschool Classes through a Microsoft Store

Both kids have gotten the opportunity to attend free classes through a local Microsoft store. Each class had 4 sessions that are held once a week. The first was video game design using Kodu, then digital photography, and the last class was coding using TouchDevelop. These classes ran from October through December.

I couldn't get good pictures of what they were working on but here are some of the main screen where the instructor walked them through how to use the programs.

Here is Shannon learning how to navigate in Kodu.

Here is Ian learning to navigate Kodu.

Everyone got a chance to change the parameters while in TouchDevlop to see how the games change. Then they got to play the games.
