A live introductory session to game creation and coding using Code.org and MIT Scratch.

For Children:

• One-session introductory game-coding trial
• Learn how simple games are created through guided demonstrations
• Explore Scratch basics, algorithms, and advanced blocks
• Understand Cryptography concepts and cyber safety
• See examples of sports, racing, and arcade games
• Designed to spark curiosity and problem-solving skills
• No prior coding or game-design experience required.

For Parents (10-Minute Orientation):

Parents join the session for a brief conversation with the teacher to understand:

• Class structure and learning progression
• Skills covered, including logical thinking and digital safety
• How games are used to teach responsible and creative coding

Perfect for first-time game creators and curious parents.

About the Program: My First Game – Learn Coding Through Game Design

My First Game is an engaging, multi-level program where children learn coding concepts by building their own interactive games. Using block-based platforms like Code.org and MIT Scratch, students progress from basic logic to advanced game design while strengthening problem-solving and creative thinking skills.

What Children Will Learn:

• Computer fundamentals and basic coding logic
• Loops, conditions, and functions
• Algorithms, flowcharts, and problem-solving
• Using math operators and variables in games
• Designing interactive quizzes and games
• Applying advanced Scratch blocks and defining functions
• Debugging, logic building, and creative game storytelling

Program Structure:

Children progress through three structured levels.

• Level 1 builds the foundation by introducing computer basics, logical thinking, loops, conditions, algorithms, and flowcharts, and concludes with the creation of a simple game.
• Level 2 introduces Scratch, where children learn to use coding blocks and digital media to create interactive games such as quizzes and logic-based games, along with a project of their choice.
• Level 3 advances these skills further using complex Scratch blocks and custom functions, enabling children to build multi-level and arcade-style games that showcase creativity and strong problem-solving skills.

Program Details:

• Age Group: 10+ years
• Duration: 36 sessions × 1 hour
• Level: 3 Levels
• Platform: Code.org, MIT Scratch
• Projects: 10+ interactive games

This program is ideal for children who love games and want to turn their ideas into playable creations while developing strong coding fundamentals.
