Coding & Game Design (Rising Gr 2-5)
Campers discover the basics of programming with Scratch. Campers will think creatively, work collaboratively, and reason systematically to program a character (sprite) to walk, speak, play music, or interact with other sprites. They’ll learn computer science concepts such as sequences, loops, conditions, variables, and functions while creating animated stories, artwork, and even a virtual pet! They’ll also build and play a variety of games, like Hide and Seek and Pong.

Campers discover the basics of programming with Scratch. Campers will think creatively, work collaboratively, and reason systematically to program a character (sprite) to walk, speak, play music, or interact with other sprites. Using colorful drag-and-drop code blocks they’ll learn computer science concepts such as sequences, loops, conditions, variables, and functions while creating animated stories, artwork, and even a virtual pet! They’ll also build and play a variety of games, like Hide and Seek and Pong! Campers will bring their games home on a flash drive to share with family and friends and continue to improve their creations at home. This camp is perfect for campers who love to create and want to explore the world of coding.
