Coding: Scratch II

For Students who have already taken the Beginning Coding with Scratch workshop and are ready to learn more advanced concepts and produce detailed, more complex creations. Students will learn programing concepts while creating fun games, activities, and stories. Most programing is done by dragging and dropping blocks with minimal typing. Many graphical characters called “sprites” are supplied along with a large variety of actions they perform. While this is a good language for beginners, it is also possible to continue learning more advanced concepts and produce detailed, more complex creations

Coding: Python II

For students who attended the Coding: Going Beyond with Python or any student with some previous Python coding experience. Python is a text-based coding language that is easy to read with less punctuation than other languages. While it is possible to start programming with Python without prior coding experience, it is geared toward older beginners or students with block programing experience who are ready to get more geeky. In Python, students will build from the ground up, typing all code and using graphics they generate or find. we will work with turtle graphics to build games and other creations.
