Beginning to Code


The Year 3 students will begin using Scratch Junior. They will be developing their skills in coding by using the Scratch Junior App. This will be building on from the computer science foundation these girls received as Year 2’s.

ScratchJr Mission statement - ‘As children code with ScratchJr, they learn how to create and express themselves with the computer, not just to interact with it. In the process, children learn to solve problems and design projects, and they develop sequencing skills that are foundational for later academic success. They also use math and language in a meaningful and motivating context, supporting the development of numeracy and literacy. With ScratchJr, children aren't just learning to code, they are coding to learn.’
