Scratch Coding (Beginner) Monthly

About this event

Learn how to program in Scratch, online coding platform developed by MIT. No typing skills necessary. Our Scratch curriculum is designed to motivate through example rather than through drills. Kids will gain the confidence to explore the vast Scratch platform on their own by the end of the semester. Age ranges are approximate. If you are unsure which class would be best for your child, please feel free to reach out to us at info@penguincodingschool.com and we would be happy to help. *Note the Sawyer booking fee is only applied once at check out, it is not charged each month Schedule The academic year runs from Monday 9/8/25-Friday 6/19/26.
