This is a 3-Day Series.  Students will meet 3 times.
In addition to basic computer skills like typing, opening and closing programs, saving and exporting files, and mouse maneuvering, and some basic Scratch experience.

In this Easter Special Edition class, Students will learn to create interactive animation by utilizing scripts tied to keyboard or touchpad input. Students will create a variety of Scratch games themed around Easter and Spring which involve coding point-and-click game dynamics. 

Day 1: Bunny Racing
Students will create a game where they can tap a button on their keyboard to move it along a track against a big hare that will move down the track in a race to the egg basket. 

Day 2: Beginning to Egg/ Design and Hatch Your Own Egg!
Students will design an egg that can be painted and decorated and then clicked on to change color. A cute chick will also hatch out to surprise.

Day 3: Egg Hunt
Students will design a point-and-click environment where a player can click on different props around the screen to see which ones are hiding an egg. The game will use a variable counter to keep track of all the eggs they find. When they find them all, a “You Win!” title card will be prompted to flash on screen.

Students can use what they learned throughout the course in games and animation, starting with Scratch and then later in complex programs. Students will discover how to apply previous Scratch knowledge and basic understanding of animation to longer and more complex projects.
