Introduction to Programming
March 29, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
$90.00Let’s learn to code! This class meets for 1 hour, every Tuesday, for 6 weeks, March 29-May 3. Kids will learn basic programming concepts such as:
- Algorithms
- Sequences
- Repetition (Loops)
- Events
- Conditional Logic
- Debugging
We will use both online and offline methods to teach the concepts, so children won’t spend the whole time poking away at a computer. Our computer-based activities are based on Scratch, which you can use at home, for free.
This course is geared towards children in grades 3-5, who are very comfortable reading and using a computer. Typing/writing skills are very helpful, but not required, because Scratch is mostly drag-and-drop. We also have a class for K-2 kids running at the same time!
