Description

After completing the introductory Scratch course, students should feel comfortable with basic blocks and the ability to visualize their game progress from initial concept to final product. This year 2 course is designed to introduce more advanced Scratch coding concepts, such as custom blocks, enabling students to design and implement more complex games and projects.


Key Features:
- Advanced Scratch Concepts: Learn to use custom blocks and other advanced features to create sophisticated projects.
- Real-World Applications: Projects focus on real-world topics and functions, integrating more math and logic.
- Enhanced Problem-Solving: Encourage independent work with less direct instruction to foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
- Creative Freedom:  Allow students artistic freedom in game design, combining technical skills with creativity.

Many projects at this level will involve more complex programming challenges and real-world applications, pushing students to apply their knowledge in new and exciting ways. By the end of the course, students will have a deeper understanding of programming concepts and be well-prepared to tackle even more advanced coding projects.

 

* Current Students: this class is recommended to AlphaMinds students who have completed Scratch Beginners II-III course in the previous school year.

** New Students: this class is recommended to students who have some previous experience with Scratch coding, have mastered the use of its basic functions/coding blocks and are looking to improve their coding skills and apply them to creating more complex games.
