Whether you’ve already kicked off the school year or are gearing up to begin, the VS Code for Education team wishes you an amazing start!
To celebrate, we’re thrilled to introduce our latest Coding Activity, “Word Match Fiesta 
,” created by George Lias from Spotsylvania County Public Schools. In this activity, you’ll build an English-Spanish word matching game in Python.
As you work through Word Match Fiesta, you’ll get hands-on practice with key programming concepts like:
- using Python’s
randommodule to shuffle and pick items from lists. - organizing lists into matrices to store and manage data.
- gathering and processing user input to make the game interactive.
- developing functions to handle game logic, including word matching and giving feedback.
- displaying information to players and updating the game based on their actions.
