  1. Discourse used by facilitators is fundamental in providing culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) students with opportunities to develop computational thinking through computer programming (CT-CP). Drawing on systemic functional linguistics (SFL) and situated learning, we illustrate how a group of CLD novice students of CT-CP, their language arts teacher (novice), and facilitator collaborated to program a digital video representation in Python. Data sources included video clips of group interactions, student-developed code, and student artifacts. Our findings indicate that 1) Encouraging the students to use Spanish and English freely in a motivational and collaborative environment can induce them to take on leading positions in CTCP practices and develop CT-CP and 2) using SFL to analyze CT-CP educational contexts is a powerful resource.
