Scratch Week<\/a> is a global celebration of Scratch that takes place from 15 to 21 May this year. Below, we\u2019ve put together some free resources to help get kids coding with this easy-to-use, block-based programming language. If you\u2019re not sure what Scratch is, check out our introduction video<\/a> for parents.<\/p>\n

Visit Scratch Island\u00a0on Code Club World<\/h2>\n

Code Club World<\/a> is a great place to start coding for children who have never done any coding or programming before. The Code Club World online platform lets them begin their coding journey with fun activities, starting by creating their own personal avatar.<\/p>\n

Then on Scratch Island, kids can code a game to find a hidden bug, design a fun \u2018silly eyes\u2019 app, or animate a story. No experience necessary! We\u2019ve just added a parents\u2019 guide to explain how Code Club World works<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Explore Scratch projects\u00a0<\/h2>\n

For kids who feel ready to move beyond the basics of Scratch this Scratch Week, our Projects site offers a catalogue of projects that further enhance kids\u2019 coding skills as they earn badges and explore, design, and invent.<\/p>\n

With the More Scratch<\/a> path, they will create six projects to make apps, games, and simulations using message broadcasting, if..then and if..then..else decisions, and variables. Then with the Further Scratch<\/a> path, they can explore the advanced features of Scratch in another six projects to use boolean logic, functions, and clones while creating apps, games, computer-generated art, and simulations.<\/p>\n

Discover young people\u2019s Scratch creations<\/h2>\n

Be inspired by the amazing things young tech creators worldwide code in Scratch by visiting the Coolest Projects Global 2022 showcase<\/a>. Young people are showing off Scratch games, stories, art, and more. In our Coolest Projects online gallery, these creations are displayed amongst hundreds of others from around the world \u2014 it\u2019s the ideal place to get inspired.<\/p>\n

Learn something new with our Introduction to Scratch course\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Are you curious about coding too? If you would like to start learning so you can better help young people with their creative projects, our online course Introduction to Programming with Scratch<\/a> is perfect for you. It\u2019s available on-demand, so you can join at any time and receive four weeks\u2019 free access (select the \u2018limited access\u2019 option when you register). This course is a fun, inspiring, and colourful starting point if you have never tried coding before.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a parent looking for more coding activities to share with your kids, you can sign up to our parent-focused newsletter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We hope you enjoy exploring these resources during Scratch Week.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
