Key Skills students will build in class:
Level 1: Apply fundamental concepts to build animations, Sequencing, Use motion and looks blocks
Level 2: Create own variables and functions, Program with event and control blocks
Level 3: Learn prototyping, Design more advanced games using constructors and variables. Use broadcasts, Explore graphics and sound, Advanced use of all types of blocksExamples of student projects:
create your own baseball match with multiple teams, interactive Magic 8 Ball, design a drawing app using math basics, escape room puzzle, dueling dragons
