Budding artists, builders and coders will play and create imaginative worlds full of mountains, rivers, deep forests and animals that explore and begin to create on their own in this fun-first introduction to coding, 3D design, and problem-solving. Coding is the new literacy! With ScratchJr, we’ll program our own interactive stories and games. In the process, we’ll learn to solve problems, design projects, and express ourselves creatively on the computer. Screen time can be creative, fun, learning time. Let’s code! This is a premium class and costs $40.00 per class
