<div class="PlainText">Dear All,<br>
<br>
I wanted to let everyone know that we have created new materials for the upcoming Hour of Code. While the activity is intended to be a very early intro to Alice I though it may be useful to some of you for integrating into other classes, subject matter, or
for after school or out of school clubs and groups. There are a couple more add on videos around how to set up do-togethers in the works that will be added shortly but wanted to get something up and out earlier rather than later.<br>
<br>
There is a blog post around it here:<br>
