Scratch
Scratch is a free to use programming language designed to teach crucial programming concepts through the use of block-based programming. Starting with Scratch is beneficial as it allows the students to focus on core concepts as well as keeps them engaged in the material. Programming languages are difficult to get introduced to as they have a heavy focus on syntax in addition to the complex ideas they contain. Scratch simplifies the process by allowing students to focus on the ideas behind the core concepts by implementing the use of blocks to represent lines of code. Scratch also allows students to create entertaining programs while they apply the concepts they learn which keeps them interested and invested in the lessons. This increased focus on core concepts and engagement allows the students to easily learn coding concepts and transfer that knowledge to other languages in the future.
3-6 students group class payment options:
Pay for lessons package
Once a week, pay monthly
Please contact our staff to confirm the class schedule before you sign up.
By the end of the program, students will have been exposed to various programming concepts as well as practiced application to solidify the information they received form the lessons. By learning the ideas behind complex coding concepts, students will be able to transition what they learned to more complex languages and allow them to program in other languages easier.
