Back to: Information Technology Primary 4
Welcome to today’s class!!
We are thrilled to have you in our class!!
In today’s Information Technology class, we will be talking about Scratch in the Environment
Scratch in the Environment
Scratch is a visual programming environment that allows users (primarily ages 8 to 16) to learn computer programming while working on personally meaningful projects such as animated stories and games.
A key design goal of Scratch is to support self-directed learning through tinkering and collaboration with peers.
Scratch is a programming language and an online community where children can program and share interactive media such as stories, games, and animation with people from all over the world. As children create with Scratch, they learn to think creatively, work collaboratively, and reason systematically.
In summary, unlike Java, Python, and other programming languages, Scratch is simple to use and does not require writing codes to execute operations. A child can drag and drop images to create an interactive animation.
