1/10 I was asked to give some ideas but honestly I can make several recs that this requires a thread as it depends on your interests/need @AndreaMoncayo1 @teacher2teacher
2/10 For breadth instead of just coding (programming languages change, computational thinking and analyzing the impact of computing does not) I recommend @exploringcs built for 6-9th grade, 6+ units and includes 2 units on coding (Web Design and General Programming w/ Scratch)
3/10 For a little mix of hardware and coding I love the stuff @Raspberry_Pi puts out on https://projects.raspberrypi.org/en . Also their @HelloWorld_Edu Magazine is full of great ideas for K-12 educators.
4/10 years ago, @google’s creative lab came out with some one-off coding projects https://googlecreativelab.github.io/coder-projects/  which are still online and I think are great for students. It was meant for an OS you run on a raspberry pi, but you can run these projects in something like @glitch
5/10 @facebookedu also has some cool one-off projects like https://engineerfortheweek.fb.com/project/chatbots-for-change/ Like my raspberry pi and google recs above, sometimes I think a project where a student builds something tangible is more fruitful then rolling out a curriculum.
6/10 I’m a huge fan of @p5xjs if you’re looking to see the creative coding world. @algorithmic_art has great resources for younger students https://sites.google.com/view/creative-coding-for-kids/
8/10 @CodeHS is meant for high school but there are definitely courses you can scale down to middle school. Definitely worth checking out. What’s great is this is kind of a classroom in a box... slides, videos, exercises, some automated checks for kids code.
9/10 @CSforAllNYC put together a really great resource for K-12 CS education https://blueprint.cs4all.nyc/curriculum/ 
10/10 @AndreaMoncayo1 @teacher2teacher I hope that wasn’t too much. These are just some things I’ve fallen in love with the last couple of years teaching CS. Pick the 1st thing that sounds interesting and go with it; your own interest will be contagious to your kids :) Good luck!
