Ms. Burbano makes technology fun and exciting

If you want to find a technology teacher, talk to Ms. Burbano. She makes technology fun and exciting. Ms. Burbano deserves the Lamplighter Award because she teaches us how to code and program.

Coding is how we communicate with computers. Code tells a computer what actions to take, and writing code is like creating a set of instructions.

Once we played with a laser. When we played the game, we pointed the laser at a mirror, and it deflected. “Deflected” is a new term I learned in technology.

I also think Ms. Burbano deserves the Lamplighter Award because she lets us do the programming ourselves. I like doing coding by myself because I can show her what I know. Wow, you talk about fun!

The best reason for awarding Ms. Burbano with the Lamplighter Award is that she lets us play Scratch, a game of creativity. In the game, we can program characters to do different things. We can watch tutorials within the game and learn even more about programming. Yes, I had a fun year with Ms.

Burbano because I learned so much about programming. She is a great technology teacher.
