SCRATCH: ADVANCED (AGE 7-9)
FURTHER DEVELOP YOUR CHILD’S COMPUTATIONAL THINKING
In this course, students build on what they learned in the Scratch Beginner Class. Kids will learn more advanced programming concepts, build larger, more complex projects, and hone their critical problem solving skills. Concepts such as project planning will be introduced to allow students to experience creating projects from start to finish.
More advanced computational concepts will be taught, stretching and challenging students to think and apply what they have learned mathematically. Ultimately this course will provide them with a comprehensive programming tool-set that is relevant for both schoolwork and personal hobbies.
The Scratch Advanced class is broke into two, 10 hour sections: Advanced 1 and Advanced 2.
