Scratch Coding Activities for Elementary and Middle School Spark an interest in computer science! In this STEM project, students become coders that design a fun Activity Studio for kids using Scratch. Through discovery and exploration, they learn how to create a series of hands-on activities that children will enjoy playing.
The young programmers apply computational thinking to build algorithms that sequence commands, events, loops, and conditions. They learn how to construct scripts to develop animated scenes, mazes, interactive stories, and games. Additional challenges extend coding skills to create artwork, compose music, produce a diorama, and more! After each project, students complete coding journal logs to help them to think like a programmer. |
