Getting Unstuck: 21 Creative Scratch Challenges

The Getting Unstuck Archive is 21 days of small programming challenges in Scratch, available at https://gettingunstuck.gse.harvard.edu/. Getting Unstuck was originally designed as an email-based course, running from July 5th-25th, 2018. 
 

We designed this learning experience for K–12 teachers who are passionate or curious about supporting creative work with Scratch (a graphical programming language and online community being used by millions of young people around the world) in the classroom. But anyone who enjoys programming puzzles and learning with others is welcome to participate. Supporting students in pursuing creative work, with all of the twists and turns that can entail, can be tricky. As a teacher, in addition to having an adventurous spirit and genuine curiosity, it can help to have greater familiarity and fluency with Scratch. Our goal for Getting Unstuck is supporting that familiarity and fluency—by inviting you into these daily programming challenges. 

 

That's totally fine! Before diving into the daily challenges, try out this interactive online Scratch tutorial.
