Course Description
Scratch is a super-fun way to introduce your child to the wonders of Coding! Drag, Drop, Click… you’ll be amazed at what they can do! NextGen SmartyPants's curriculum keeps things fresh and introduces kids to new and cool ways to practice, create, and design code with Scratch.
Junior Coding with Scratch® Junior (Grades K-2)
NextGen SmartyPants teaches Junior Coding using the Scratch Junior Graphical Programming Language across four increasingly challenging levels:
Teachers assess Student skills and any previous Coding experience, and then adjust the curriculum provided to each child accordingly. If your child has taken Coding with Scratch Junior before, they will be taught
at a higher level of the Coding curriculum to ensure that they are learning new material, challenged at their skill level, and gaining practice in their Coding skills.

All Students are expected to behave respectfully toward their Teacher and their fellow Students at all times. Physical violence, foul language, bullying, stealing or throwing of NextGen SmartyPants equipment, or other disrespectful behaviors are strictly prohibited and will be grounds for dismissal from our program without refund.
Student attendance is taken during check-in and check-out during our class each week. Parents, if you are anticipating your child to be absent from our class. please notify your child's school administrator, their Teacher at school, and their NextGen SmartyPants Teacher. A missing child is a terrifying experience for anyone. Your assistance with this helps us account for the whereabouts for each child. Thank you, in advance.
