GIANT at Scratch Day!
This past Sunday (09/22), was Scratch Day at Civic Hall! If you are unaware of Scratch, it is a block-based visual online program for children who are starting to learn how to code. We at GIANT have been implementing Scratch into our after school coding programs for years.
The event featured animation and digital art, music, movement, art, and of course coding activities! We even got to meet Scratch creator, Mitchel Resnick and Scratch Foundation president, Margaret Honey.
This year’s theme was Create Your Adventure, and GIANT had the opportunity to be a part of the fun with our own station!
Take a look at some of these awesome projects!
Mazes!
Game spinners!
A GIANT favorite: the fishing game!
We love games and Scratch! It was such an honor to be a part of this event.
