Subject: Coding Game Development Lessons, Grades 4-9

Create a game to have players race against time, collect treasure, and avoid obstacles.

TechnoRace Programming Project

Coding and Game Development for Kids


Students design an original game using Scratch. In the race, a player must collect treasure to complete a mission before time is up. Instructions explain how to build scripts that will direct the player's movements, control obstacles, keep score, and more!


Everyone learns the same technology skills, yet each student makes a one-of-a-kind game. Will the alien jump to hyper speed? Can the player avoid the lava? Does the ship have enough star power to fly? Ignite your students' creativity!

Scratch Coding Unit for Grades 4-9


TechnoRace includes a teacher guide, student workbook, and resources. To support instruction, the unit includes example games and assessment tools (coding journal, quizzes, skill reviews). As well, there are extension activities to challenge learners.
