Welcome to Computer Science!
Mr. Larkins
Pine Hill Middle School – Room 408
School Year: 2025–2026
Dear all,Welcome to Computer Science! I’m so glad you’ll be part of this class, where we’ll explore how computers work, how to program, and how technology shapes the world around us. Whether you’re a total beginner or already have some coding experience, there’s something for everyone.
Over the course of this year, students will learn how to:
- Think like a computer scientist through problem-solving and creativity
- Explore block and text-based coding
- Work with robots, simulations, and digital projects
- Practice safe and responsible digital citizenship
- Collaborate with classmates to build, test, and improve cool creations
This class will be hands-on, project-based, and full of opportunities to explore, experiment, and express your ideas. You’ll learn how to code, how to debug problems, and how to use technology to solve real-world challenges.
I believe every student has the potential to succeed in computer science—no matter your background or experience. My classroom is a safe space to learn, make mistakes, and grow.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. I’m excited for all the learning and discovery ahead!
Let’s have a great year together!
