Scratch Programming (a graphical programming language developed at MIT) is ideal for elementary school kids. It has been developed to meet the interests of younger kids who want to learn about the fundamentals of programming. In this course, students (rising grades 2 through 5) will be introduced to fundamental programming concepts in a simple, intuitive, and educational way. Kids will have the opportunity to learn how to create interactive projects (animations, and or computer games) using Scratch. Kids will develop the skills of how to plan a project, design a project and will apply the skills learned in class to create their own project (game).
Our Scratch camp is targeted towards students with an interest in learning about the fundamentals of programming. By familiarizing him or her with the basics of scratch, students develop a greater understanding of programming as a whole. Scratch is designed to be a simple, intuitive, and educational way for students to get introduced to app programming. In this camp, students will have the opportunity to create projects by employing the skills they have learned during the camp
