Scratch Ninja 1-3
This class uses Scratch, a platform developed by MIT, to teach fundamental coding concepts. We start from the very basics, so no prior coding experience is needed. Students will learn core coding concepts such as sequence, loop, and conditional. We will also use a wide range of Scratch specific capabilities including motion, sensing, control, and more. Your child will have a lot of fun as we build a new project in every session ranging from animation, games, to storytelling. Students not only learn coding but also start creating from day one! In Part 2 of our Scratch course program, your student will be challenged to be creative and solve tough (but fun!) problems while learning how to create a cool interactive game with a ball, conquering a wizard tag game, building animations with moving and talking characters (also called Sprites) based on their interests, and even navigating and customizing a jungle adventure! Students will build their critical thinking skills and learn core coding concepts such as loops, conditional, events, cloning, sensing, and variables, through exciting new projects in every session!

Scratch Junior
In this fun Scratch Junior class, we will create a series of animations and games while learning about core coding concepts. For example, your child will learn loops, messaging, how to capture events in a game to take action, and a lot more. We will go from simple projects with different characters working independently, to connecting characters with complex actions. Your child will also get to apply their artistic skills to create their own sprites, tell stories, and share their math and science knowledge.

Minecraft Code to Mod: Units 1, 2, & 3
Students will learn how to make a Minecraft mod, and how to program games, stories, buildings, and see it come alive in the Minecraft game. Coding in this live online class is done through a drag-and-drop interface similar to Scratch. However, we teach much deeper computer programming skills commonly used in advanced text-based programming languages. This course is a great next step for kids who have mastered Scratch and would like to continue to learn more advanced coding. • Prerequisites: Students must be very familiar with Scratch with at least 20 hours of Scratch coding experience or completed Create & Learn Scratch Ninja I and II classes. • Technical Requirements: The software we use requires a relatively powerful Windows or Mac computer to work well. Program does not work on Chromebook. Before we can start coding, we need to do some fairly complex set up. We will send you some information to start setting up your computer ahead of the class. Students will then need to work with the teacher for about 30 min to complete the second part of the set-up in the first session. You need to purchase and install Minecraft Java Edition (https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/store/minecraft-java-edition. click Buy Minecraft. It costs $26.5) before the first class.
