This is the homepage for a 1st grade [[Sugar on a Stick]] deployment taking place during spring 2010 at [http://cambridgefriendsschool.org Cambridge Friends School] in Cambridge, MA USA. It's a constant work in progress, and may change from day to day - feel free to edit this page if you think you can improve it!

The curricular theme for the second half of first grade at this school has traditionally been “community” – so Lynne May (the 1st grade teacher) is planning her curriculum so the kids spend the whole semester learning (in a very exploratory way) about the Sugar Labs community and coming up with ways to convey their understanding of how open source participation works. For comparison, they’ll be looking at open source communities in parallel with two other kids of communities: their school (all together) and the neighborhood they (individually) live in.

And they’ll be participating upstream – this was important to Lynne May, that we find a way for the students to become a part of an open source community. We’re watching for opportunities throughout term for them to submit bug reports, blog on Planet Sugar Labs, participate in online meetings (in IRC, with a computer hooked to a wall projector and a grown-up typing and helping them read), and generally listening for things the Sugar (and Sugar-in-Fedora) community needs that they can make, and making them.
