Course Description
For Ages 7-10
Get ready to take your coding and creativity skills to the next level by building interesting projects on Scratch!
- Available in hybrid format (Online & Offline)
Parents can opt for the online format, up to a week before the start of workshop - Suitable for beginners with no coding experience
- Kids will learn the basics of computational thinking and sequencing
- With block-based programming language, Scratch, they will learn to combine coding blocks to create an animated card and a paintbox project.
All you need to know
Learn how to add your own words, colors, and sounds to your e-card by applying concepts in programming.
Create a beautiful interactive card using the wonders of Scratch programming. Add their own words, colors and sounds through a programming language known as Scratch, using lists.
If you do not like the colors and the sounds in the example, fret not! You can choose your favorite colors and kick out your favorite jams to vamp up your very own interactive card.
Try your hand at digital art, by creating your own Paintbox application!
By the end of this class, students will learn the basic coding blocks like events, broadcast and looks, and apply their knowledge through the two projects. They will then be able to share their projects with their friends. Get creative, for the sky is the limit!
For online format, your child will require:
- A computer or laptop with a working webcam and microphone, in order to participate in class and for our instructor to check their understanding. Kindly avoid sharing devices.

(For macOS computers, please enable these permission settings) - We also recommend that you have an adult member of your household standing by for the first 15 mins of the first class to assist with any technical difficulties that may arise.
Oh! The stuff you'll learn
- Understand basic coding blocks of events, broadcast and looks
- Apply these concepts via coding an interactive card and a paintbox project
- Gain a deeper appreciation for programming
Life skills you'll learn
Logical Thinking
Presentation Skills
Problem Solving
Pedagogy
No lectures. No memorisation. No ONE right answer. Like real life, we're all about trying things out yourself, failing, figuring what went wrong & trying again. These are the skills & mindset that will last a lifetime and how we learn in real life. Let's get kids to learn how to learn. Because the kids who learn to learn become curious, inventive, resourceful human beings who solve real world problems to make a meaningful impact.
