Programación creativa con Scratch (avanzada)

Each week students will: 

 1. Create a game of their own design 🎮
 2. Make new friends 👏
 3.  Complete exciting weekly challenges 🎯
 4. Share their games with their peers 👩‍💻🧑‍💻plex projects in game development and interactive storytelling! 

This class is designed for students who are comfortable with intermediate concepts and ready to tackle more challenging code and ambitious creations.

In each session, we’ll explore advanced coding concepts, like using custom blocks, complex conditionals, cloning, and advanced animations to make projects more dynamic and polished. 

Students will be guided by friendly and patient instructors who love empowering creativity and encouraging problem-solving. From building multi-level games to designing interactive narratives, students will be encouraged to push their coding skills further with supportive guidance and plenty of room for exploration.

This club is a welcoming, collaborative space where young developers can bring their ideas to life, gain confidence, and share their creative projects with friends who share their passion for coding!

Tech

For the best coding experience, mobile students are encouraged to have one device for coding and one device for Zoom.📱💻 Students who are coding on computers can use the same device for both if they know how to switch back and forth between the two application. 

Headsets are not necessary, but do provide a more focused experience and tend to block out more background noise. 🎧

Before Class

Students should ensure their devices are compatible with the Scratch 3.0 app or can access the Scratch website. Students should also be comfortable with the device they will be coding on as this class does not help with computer literacy skills.
