Hello, coders-in-training!
In this lesson, we’re going to explore block-based programming—a super fun way to learn how to code by using colorful blocks instead of typing tricky words. You’ll also get to know Scratch, a cool tool where you can create your own games, animations, and stories just by snapping blocks together—like building with digital LEGO! We'll watch videos, try some activities, and see how coding can help you bring your ideas to life on the screen!
Vid 2.1: What is Block Based Programming?
Block-based programming is a way of coding using visual blocks instead of typed text.
Each block represents a specific command or action.
This approach makes it easier for beginners, especially children, to understand how coding works.
Scratch is one of the most popular block-based programming platforms for children. Created by MIT Media Lab, it allows users to create animations, games, and stories using block-based logic.
Example: A child can use Scratch to create a story where a cat moves across the screen, says “Hello,” and dances when clicked.
