Parental Guidance
As a parent, I encourage you to support and supervise your child's exploration of Scratch coding. While Scratch provides a safe and educational environment for children to learn coding, it's essential for us parents to be actively involved in our child's online activities. I recommend monitoring your child's interactions on Scratch, discussing internet safety practices together, and setting appropriate time limits for screen time. By working together, we can ensure a positive and enriching experience for our child as they learn and create with Scratch coding.
Supply List
It is preferable and highly recommended to have 2 screens. If that is not possible, a working knowledge of how to navigate from one window to another will be sufficient.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
As a dedicated educator with a passion for technology and creativity, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise to teaching Scratch coding. With a background in STEM education, I am equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to guide students through their coding journey. My hands-on experience in elementary education has allowed me to develop effective teaching strategies that cater to diverse learning styles and abilities.
Furthermore, my enthusiasm for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education drives me to continuously seek out new ways to engage and inspire students in coding and computational thinking. Whether it's through designing interactive projects, facilitating collaborative learning experiences, or providing personalized support, I am committed to empowering students to unleash their creativity and develop essential coding skills with Scratch.
With my background, expertise, and dedication to student success, I am confident in my ability to create a positive and enriching learning environment where students can thrive and excel in Scratch coding.Other classes by Tirre' Logston
