Why take this course?

This course uses a Project-Based Learning (PBL) approach to develop problem-solving skills and foster creative thinking through hands-on programming projects. Students will explore key programming concepts like loops, variables, collision detection, and randomization while designing interactive animations, games, and digital art. By working on real-world challenges such as synchronizing sprite actions, controlling movement with event blocks, and creating custom interactions, students will gain practical experience in both coding and creative design. This course encourages students to think critically, experiment with solutions, and learn through making, helping them develop technical and problem-solving skills to create engaging, functional digital experiences.

Prerequisites:

  • To maximize the benefits of this course, students must be age 6 and above or have the qualifications mentioned below.
  • Prior coding experience is optional, but knowledge of basic computer use or experience in browsing the internet and Google can be helpful.
  • Students should complete Code.org’s Pre-readers Express to master mouse controls (drag & drop) and foundational coding concepts: Code.org Pre-readers Express.
  • A typing speed of 15 Words Per Minute (WPM) is recommended. For practice, you can visit these websites:

Course Outline

4 Month Plan
a) Sequencing & Self-Expression
  • Students learn about the interface of scratch while creating a story through a character & a background. They will learn to express themselves through the character in a given scenario.
  • Students will get a taste of animating a feature of their favorite pet in a virtual fantasy world. They will learn to have the programs communicate with each other through broadcasts.
b) Character Motions & Coordinate System
  • Students will learn to use freely available Photo editing websites to bring their favorite characters into their projects.
  • Students will learn about the coordinate system by moving the sprites through motion blocks and building a virtual show & tell presentation.
c) User Inputs & Scene Transitions
  • Students will start to create interactive projects by programming buttons to move sprites. They will learn to program scene transitions in their stories.
  • Students will be introduced to conditional statements to help their programs automatically change scenes upon certain conditions.
d) Randomization & Visual Effects
  • Students will learn to use the Scratch painting environment to design their own sprites. They will use the random function to make the sprites change costumes randomly for a natural effect.
  • Students will create their first simulation of a real-life phenomenon i.e. thunderstorm in their project & learn about the comparable speeds of sound & lightning.
a)Background Effects
  • Students will program the background to be moving to create a wave in an ocean scene.
  • Students will program a sunrise and add moving clouds.
b) Moving Sprites
  • Students will pick a name or a word and bring it to life with adding music, or visual effects to it.
  • Students will animate disappearing acts based on visual effects on the costumes.
c) Changing Looks
  • Students will build a fashion styling program which will employ use of holding objects with mouse.
  • Students will use their own images as sprites and animate gestures such as waving and push-ups.
d)Transformation
  • Students will make objects transform into other objects with visual effects.
  • Students will transform the favorite person in their life to a superhero using costume change.
a) Shapes
  • Participants will use directions and learn about repeat loops to creates squares and multiple squares.
  • Participants will explore more shapes with different angles and learn about hexagons, octagons, decagons and find the angle for a star.
b) Mouse Interaction
  • Participants will use mouse positions as references for objects to move and use stamps to create colorful prints of the sprites.
  • Participants will create a function that prints some spirals when the mouse button is clicked.
c) Digital Art
  • Participants will make an erasing program using stamp and learn about Interactions with colors on the screen.
  • Participants will create a Mondriaan like artwork using random function and create squares on the screen.
d) Cards
  • Participants will create a greeting card for someone’s birthday and create pop-ups of their favorite objects in the program.
  • Participants will create an interactive gift card with the possibility to say multiple greetings and present different gifts
a) Chase Games
  • Participants will create a mouse and cat chase game
  • Participants will create a shark game which eats the fish
b) Platform Games
  • Participants will create a pong game with bricks to break with a ball
  • Participants will create a food catching game with timer limit
c) Race Games
  • Participants will create a race game for two players with a single lap
  • Participants will create a single player lap timer race game while learning about velocity and friction
d) Adventure Games
  • Participants will create a cave flying survival game.
  • Participants will create a quest finding game with multiple scenes.

Learning Outcomes

  • Create their own sequences of instructions to make their favorite programs. They will also be able to explain their programs with programming terminologies such as loops, variables, conditions, and scratch blocks
  • Share their programs with their profiles on the scratch online platform and think of making the programs more efficient by removing redundancies.
  • Use the editing platform and other online resources like remove.bg or mazegenerator.net to create good backgrounds and sprites and animate them to build their own styles of animations.
  • Use customized media as sprites and also create their own variables, and synchronized sequences to develop single and multiplayer games.
  • With this foundation-level knowledge, they will be ready to treat programming as a problem-solving skill and move toward exploring intermediate-level concepts such as lists, abstraction, decomposition, and complex conditional or loops in Scratch Level 2.

I consider Scratch as a foundation for real problem-solving, not just drag-and-drop coding. Students learn how to think logically, break down ideas, and build interactive games, animations, and stories from scratch. Each class is hands-on, structured, and creativity-driven so kids don’t just follow steps, they understand why things work. My goal is to turn beginners into confident creators who can build their own ideas independently.

As a creator I still use Scratch for myself, whenever i want to make a meme or a game. It's not just a way to learn to program, but a way to create, whatever you like. Sure it has its limitations, but when it comes to teaching kids how to create as a beginner, there's no better tool. And they also have plenty of tutorials for beginners and I introduce all of this while teaching to enable my students to become self-learners.

For me, Scratch is where logic clicks into place. The same thinking that snaps a block into position is the real skill underneath all coding: breaking a big idea into small steps, testing it, and fixing what does not work. We build games, animations, and stories from scratch, so students are not just following along, they are creating. As an electronics engineer, I know confident problem solving starts here, and my goal is to turn beginners into makers who build their own ideas.

Welcome to the most exciting coding adventure for young minds! We'll animate characters, build awesome games like Flappy Bird, and create pixel art , all while learning real programming in Scratch! Every session is fun, hands-on, and carefully structured so kids enjoy every moment while parents see real progress. Let's code something amazing together!

I see Scratch as a way for students to learn how to think, not just how to code. In my classes, I’ll encourage them to explore ideas, experiment with different solutions, and build projects they can be proud of while developing confidence along the way.
