Introducing the fundamentals of Scratch and block-based coding.

Crafting custom-made coding games that resonate with each student's interests.

Fostering a collaborative learning environment where students can share and improve together.

Encouraging the progression from simple to complex projects, laying a strong foundation for future learning in any programming language.
