Introduction to Coding with ScratchJr 1

This first module introduces young learners to the world of coding through ScratchJr, a fun and colorful programming app made for children.
Students will learn how to give instructions to characters (called sprites) to make them move, talk, and act out short stories. Through guided, playful lessons, learners will explore basic coding ideas such as sequences, events, and storytelling. By the end of the module, they will create their first simple animation — a sprite that waves and says hello!

In this module, learners will continue their journey in ScratchJr by exploring how to make stories come alive through movement and animation. They will learn how to add new characters, change backgrounds, and make multiple sprites move together to tell short stories. This module helps children think creatively while understanding timing, coordination, and storytelling through code. By the end of this module, learners will create an animated story titled “A Day at the Park.”
