스크래치 코딩 클럽

n Scratch Club, students have time to show their work to classmates; work together on ideas, testing or debugging; learn new skills, work on their individual projects, and enjoy the company of peers who also like to code and create. 

Each Scratch Club meeting will include:

Greeting - We begin by saying hello to each other!

Show Student Work - Students can show what they worked on since our last session. Classmates can help test or debug if needed, ask questions about the project, and give positive feedback. 

Lesson - We will have an interactive demo and mini-lesson on a coding and/or animation concept and technique. These may include sequencing, the coordinate grid, motion, flip-book animation, dialog, sound, repeat loops, conditional code, variables, sensors, operators, functions, parameters, debugging and testing. Weekly topics will be selected based on student interests, prior experience, and project needs.

Work on Projects - Students will have time to work on their own projects. They will add coding, artwork and sound. Students can take a turn sharing their screen as they work, and can get help from the teacher and from classmates as needed. Students will select their own projects, ranging from games, stories, memories, cards, models, and more. Do they want to create a cool game, tell a story, remember a special day, create a card, think about a book they read, make a science model, or share a message? You can do all this and more with Scratch! Students will choose their own projects, and can work on each project over 1 or multiple sessions. Each student will decide when they are ready to start a new project.

Show Work - Students will show what they created in class, and classmates will give constructive suggestions (if wanted) and specific compliments. Students can also tell us if their project is complete, or what they plan to add next.

Good Bye - We will end with a friendly good bye. Happy coding everyone! 

This class is for students who have used Scratch or a similar coding tool before. Students new to Scratch are encouraged to take my Scratch for Beginners class.
