Scratch Programming: Thanksgiving Game

Experience Level: Beginner

Recommended Ages: 7-12 (younger children are ok with help from an adult)

Description: It's nearly Thanksgiving but if you're a turkey you might be a little worried. In this session we'll build a Scratch game to give our Turkey a "leg up". (sorry for the bad pun).

No prior Scratch experience is required for this course, however if you've worked in Scratch before you will probably still learn something new.

This class is recommended for both children who have never used Scratch before, and those who wish to learn about programming through a visual drag and drop style programming language that doesn't require a lot of typing.

To learn more about Scratch check out their website:

You are encouraged to create a Scratch account for your child on the Scratch website before the class so they can save their projects and continue to play with and work on it at home. Registration is free, and privacy is maintained: http://scratch.mit.edu/

Note: You must have registered for this class on the Meetup Site. Use the "Additional Guest" for any additional children. Parents do not require a registration. Please print and bring your ticket with you.

Capacity is limited. Without a registration you may not attend this session. If you do not make it in to the session immediately you will be placed on the waiting list.

Parents are required to remain with their child during the session. You may not "drop off" your child.
