    I'm a teacher in Ontario where coding is a part of the curriculum. Code.org and https://scratch.mit.edu/ are free to use websites with great lessons for students to learn from. There are usually already a few Chromebooks floating around a classroom. Set up some centers and your coding unit is done. The kids who love it will use the resources in their own time and now you have kids involved in STEM.
