Scratch is a wonderful, free(!) web-based coding environment that is great for young coders. Great for first-time coders but with so many features, your child will be creating for years to come! In my opinion, it is the best way to learn to code. In this class, we'll learn how to make games that you can play. We'll start with learning how to make the base game, and then you can add more to make the game your own. We'll learn how to make sprites and animate them, how to control sprites with the keyboard and mouse, how to detect when things bump into each other, how to program gravity, and more! This class is designed for "beginners".
Iwill ask them to log into their Scratch account. If they can't do that - I will tecah them to do that. 1 game will be built during this class.
