Virtual Learning Network

Here at VLN Primary School we started our Scratch programming class a few weeks ago.  Students are introduced to Scratch 2.0 and problem solving skills through creating a maze game.  Students have developed their own projects too and we discuss and share those through the WeLearn space.

Here's an example of a student's project: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/64648400/#player

I've been really impressed with their enthusiasm - it seems with Scratch homework is a must!

I also run an after school programming club in association with Whangarei Central Library.  They sponsor the sessions and purchased a suite of Raspberry Pis just for the club. Awesome :-)
