Event Details

Join Kori Ashton for a morning of coding in Scratch. We will be creating the game: Floor is Lava - Level ONE

Join our 2-hour Scratch Camp Workshop, where creativity meets technology in a whirlwind of fun and learning! Designed for kids ages 8-18, this engaging session will introduce the basics of programming through the creation of interactive animations and gaming. Participants will dive into the colorful world of Scratch, using easy-to-understand coding blocks to bring their wildest imaginations to life as we design level one of the video game The Floor is Lava.
