In our first #CreativeComputingChat of the year, educators from around the world shared resources and reflected on their goals for teaching with Scratch!
This free, interest-driven curriculum includes projects and resources designed specifically for elementary coders and coding educators with little or no coding experience.
Stuck for ideas.. a way to get into coding, want flipped learning, need to start somewhere with some help... here we are. A Google slide presentation ready to share with teachers and pupils.
This collection of Math+Scratch resources highlights many ways that students build mathematical understanding by building their own projects in Scratch.
Students will enjoy outracing the bad guy in this game. 4th and 5th graders can program their own multiplication game in Scratch. Concepts covered include; variables, loops, random numbers, etc.
Students create function machine programs and challenge each other to figure out the function from the inputs and outputs. Basics of Scratch, includes simple lists.
