Supply List
Learners will need access to Outschool Zoom through the "enter classroom" link and obtain a free login to Scratch at scratch.mit.edu. No other materials are needed. Ability to have two windows open to code and follow code is important. Alternately, some learners choose to follow Outschool on a tablet and code on their computer or laptop. If you are using a tablet or iPad to code, you will need a second device (phone, laptop, computer, 2nd tablet) in order to view Outschool. If you would like to save your project, please create an account for Scratch at scratch.mit.edu before the session.

With 12 years of Scratch coding experience with learners from K-12, I am enthusiastic about learners coding as a basic literacy in the digital age. I have been fortunate to attend workshops and professional development in many areas of technology. Being able to tell a story from start to finish helps learners to be able to work with and understand the technology around them. Coding at a prepares learners for the future and helps in areas of communication, creativity, math, writing, and confidence. Reviews
