Junior Scratch Coder

Scratch is a block-based visual programming language and website used as an educational tool for coding. In this course, students will explore the basics of computer programming and program design by building some amazing projects in Scratch!

Every student will get hands-on with coding from Day One and learn how to share and collaborate on projects with their peers. We believe that the skills to communicate and work with others are just as important as the technical aspects of programming and that's how great apps and computer programs are made.
