Space Explorers Coding Course for Kids
Use coding as a tool to make thinking visible
Description
Coding is an essential 21st Century tool that our children need to learn, but just learning about a tool is useless! Our children need to know how to use this tool in their learning. In this course they'll be doing just that as they explore space. When our children are able to follow their interests and have fun, they learn more. We'll be creating programs, games and even art using the free coding tool, Scratch.
Your children are able to follow along as they code, complete activities and challenge themselves in this course. Get them started (or better developed) in their coding journey with the Space Explorers Coding Course for Kids!
