Scratch Jr - Curso de varios días para aprender a programar

With ScratchJr, young children (ages 5-8) can learn to code, solve problems and express themselves creatively on the computer. 

Through moving and interacting with the characters, children will begin to understand how the commands they put together impact the activities on the screen. Users can move characters in any direction, have the character speak, record narration, and choose to hide or show the character. Users can also add customized backgrounds by importing their own photos and change the look of a character using visual editing functions.
This course  is for beginners and learners new to coding. Students will learn to do basic coding using the app. Scratch Jr. This will be done using a PowerPoint introduction. Then, we will go to the app and break it down by exploring each function. I will break it down into simple steps by modeling it step by step as students follow along and create a slide. After I model each step, students will make their own slide and share it. No experience necessary.
