Scratch: Coding Made Easy (Age 7-9) | Kids Out and About Salt Lake City

Scratch: Coding Made Easy (Age 7-9)

Students will jump into the world of computer science with Scratch, an age-appropriate programming language designed to teach the fundamentals of coding. They will explore graphics, animations, sound, and more as they design their own character and create an environment for it to live in. Students will then give their character a purpose by developing a storyline or gaming objective. Co-sponsored with Utah Division of Games.
