What will be taught?

Students will build two Thanksgiving-themed arcade games (Turkey Run and Gobble Trouble) using Scratch.
Key programming concepts include motion, collision detection, variables, scoring, and game mechanics.

How is your class structured?

The course consists of 4 interactive sessions, 2 sessions per game over two weeks.
Each session starts with a brief introduction followed by step-by-step instructions to build the game, and ends with time for customization and Q&A.

How will you teach?

The class will be taught through live coding tutorials and guided practice.
I'll walk students through each step, demonstrating key concepts, followed by hands-on coding where they build their games alongside me.

How much will learners get to interact with you?

Students will interact with me during each step as I guide them through coding, and will receive personalized feedback and support during the project-building phases.
There will be opportunities for students to share their progress, ask questions, and get real-time assistance during each class.
