Hour of Code tutorials are ready to try -- with options for every age, every device, and even "unplugged." While this is still a work-in-progress, we invite you to check out the options, and give us feedback. In particular, for the first time Code.org’s own tutorials are available as an early preview - learn basic sequencing, repeat loops, and if-then statements from Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, and Angry Birds. Please check them out at http://postoffice.code.org/l/QnqTqgf5p1OzK892hsRUS7gA/j9i892KrgFU5f4c5C1yTxFmQ/763ftqm1KK05Qpl6Fi3ymifw and sign up to host an Hour of Code for students in your school or community at http://postoffice.code.org/l/QnqTqgf5p1OzK892hsRUS7gA/0uCvwiCJtMIO892PjsXQdDXg/763ftqm1KK05Qpl6Fi3ymifw 1,500,000 students and growing We just passed 1.5 million students planning to participate in the Hour of Code across 140 countries!
