One curriculum. Five ways in.
Pick the format that fits your school or group. I'll fit the curriculum to it.
A coding unit ends when the unit ends. A thinking habit carries over to every subject your teachers teach.
Teacher training
Professional development for teachers who want to run unplugged computer science themselves. Teachers do the activities as students first, then learn to run, adapt and assess them. Includes the full lesson plans, teacher scripts and materials lists. From a 75-minute staff session to a full PD day.
Weekly program
The full curriculum, in sequence, starting at binary numbers. Run it as a weekly STEM special or as part of your computer science or technology block.
After-school club
A weekly club your families sign up for. You set the parent price; I charge a flat fee per student.
A weekly computer science block
The same curriculum for homeschool co-ops, learning pods and microschools, paced to your group and your schedule. Student-led groups get less teaching and more guiding.
Sample lesson: Build a Machine That Learns
75 minutes. Kids become a neural network, train it by correcting its mistakes, then figure out what it actually learned. The best way to see the First Cog Method in action.
Founding groups: $350 for the first 10 groups. Details →

Weekly sessions at your kitchen table. Same curriculum, paced to your kids and their interests. You're welcome to stay in the room.
You won't see a certificate. You'll see it everywhere else.
It's not a coding class. It's the thinking every coding class skips.
