Extending from Google’s CS First themed curriculum, we introduce grades 2-5 students (7 years-old and up) to coding principles, all in project-based activities. Kids will systematically learn to program in Scratch, meanwhile explore storytelling techniques, build fun games and craft interesting presentations. The projects will showcase their creativity with the aid of coding and digital designs.

• Students use code to tell fun and interactive stories. Storytelling emphasizes creativity by encouraging students to tell a unique story each day.
• Students use computer science to simulate extreme sports, make their own commercials, and create commentary for a sporting event.
• Students learn basic video game coding concepts by making different types of games, including racing, platform, and launching.
• Design and create your own Storytelling, Sports, and Game projects.
