Fun With Computers
grades K-3  Tue 3:15-4:15

Picture
Basic skills and empowering adventures—for our youngest digital explorers.
Fun With Computers starts kids on the ongoing path of creating, not just consuming, digital content – even for kids who may still be learning reading, mouse and keyboard skills. It’s a delightful and enriching set of computer-science experiences: simple coding puzzles from Code.org; fun projects from Google’s Made With Code, Google Maps and Google Earth; off-line “programming” games and activities; and, for our slightly older kids, more advanced coding fun using Lightbot or MIT’s Scratch Jr. It’s great fun, and a sweet, gentle introduction to the rich and rewarding world of computer science.  Next-level challenges to keep returning kids learning & growing.  Eight Tuesdays from Mar 27 to May 22.  Tuition $179.  Scholarships available.

Program in Scratch!
grades 2-5     Tue 3:15-4:15

Creative Computing for Beginners and Experienced Scratchers!
MIT's Scratch programming language is a global phenomenon, and the ideal programming language for kids, who program real games, animations, and apps from the very first class. Includes both an introductory track tailored to new Scratch users, plus a more advanced track and coaching for experienced/returning Scratchers -- including special skills for game programming!  Suitable for any 3rd-5th grader, or for 2nd graders with strong tech aptitude. New Scratchers will learn the basics of MIT's Scratch programming language; work in pair programming teams to develop their own games and apps; enjoy the creations of other kids around the world; and build their own portfolio of Scratch projects. Our Instructors guide the group, support advanced users, designate teams, facilitate regular discussions, and celebrate & document kids' milestones & achievements. Eight Tuesdays from Mar 27 to May 22. (No class during holidays and conferences; we meet immediately after early dismissal.) Tuition $179. Scholarships available.
