Class Experience

In this introductory course, children will be introduced to the common code blocks in Scratch. They will create their own project that includes their own talking character through the use of speech bubbles. They will be introduced to backdrop sprites and will then select their own backdrop for the project. They will also use letter blocks to spell out their name and then incorporate some of the effects such as color, sound, and motion to animate their name. 

Class Structure:
1) Introductions
2) Demonstration of Project
3) Scratch Overview
4) Character Sprites, Look & Control Blocks Creation
5) Name Creation Using Letter Blocks + Backdrop Selection
6) Add 1 to 3 animation effects

Learning Goals

By the end of this course, the student will have a completed project that includes a talking character that greets and introduces itself and then animates their name. 

They will...
•	Learn programming vocabulary
•	Learn about scratch blocks
•	Learn how to use code blocks to create algorithms 
•	Use algorithms to animate his or her name using letter sprites
•	Create a program that includes sequences, events, loops, and conditionals

Other Details

Supply List

    Teacher expertise and credentials
    Hi! My name is Juanita Dailey. I am super excited to now be an Outschool teacher!!! The types of classes I am looking to teach will revolve around technology such as programming, creating videos, and Zumba fitness classes. 
    
    I have a Bachelor's of Science Degree in Information Management with a concentration in Systems Programming. I also have an MBA with a concentration in Project Management. I have a teaching certificate in ESL and also have various Zumba fitness certifications. 
    
    I have over 15 years of teaching experience at the university level and with kids ranging in ages 4 - 12 years old. I also have over 15 years of experience as a Systems Analyst, Software Engineer and Web Designer. I've taught programming classes, ESL and Zumba Fitness. 
    
    I love the tech side of things, playing around with creating videos and fitness! My teaching philosophy is that learning should be fun. When learning is fun, this makes it easier for the student to learn and to cultivate a love of learning. I can't wait to be apart of your child's learning experience to help them develop their creativity, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills. We're going to have a blast!
    
    Something fun about me is that I love adventure so sometimes you may find me out paragliding or white water rafting for outdoor activities. Indoors, I enjoy playing my arcade games such as Ms. Pacman and putting my ball on our indoor putting green.
