Coding Essentials

Children explore how coding shapes the technology they use every day, then take their first steps by creating interactive projects of their own.

3rd–6th Class

This is an "in school" event where we come to your school and run a Coding Essentials workshop for your students.

In this interactive workshop, students will dive into the fundamentals of coding through engaging, hands-on activities. These exercises introduce essential concepts like problem-solving, creating sequences, and using logic in a fun and accessible way.

Building on this foundation, students will use Chromebooks or laptops to design their own interactive game on the Scratch platform. This practical project allows them to apply their new skills creatively while exploring how coding is used to bring ideas to life.

This 60-minute workshop is tailored for 3rd to 6th Class students, offering an exciting introduction to coding that inspires creativity and critical thinking.
