By the end of this course, students will:
Understand the fundamentals of programming (loops, variables, conditionals, events)
Build interactive games and animations step-by-step
Learn debugging and problem-solving skills
Gain confidence to start creating their own coding projects
Have a solid foundation to explore more advanced coding in the future
Who this course is for:
Kids in grades 4+ (ages ~9–Adult)
Parents who want to give their kids a fun and educational start in coding
Teachers or homeschoolers looking for a structured Scratch curriculum
Complete beginners—no prior coding experience needed
Why Scratch?
Scratch is trusted by educators around the world and used in millions of classrooms. It uses colorful drag-and-drop blocks instead of complex code, so kids can focus on creativity and logic while still learning the foundations of computer science.
With each lesson, students create real games they can play and share, keeping learning exciting and motivating.
Those under 18 may use this course only if a parent or guardian opens their account, handles any enrollments, and manages their account usage.
Who this course is for:
- No prior coding experience is needed! This course is designed for beginners — both teachers and students — with clear, step-by-step guidance.
- Young learners (especially grades 4–6) may benefit from adult support during the first few lessons. A teacher, parent, or guardian can help get them started.
