Publisher's Synopsis
✓ Do you want to learn a new and valuable skill that will help you become more tech-savvy?
If yes, you might find coding to be particularly appealing as it has a bit of everything for everyone, involving creativity, logic, art, math, architecture, and problem-solving through the use of computer software.
This book teaches you to code step by step through existing programming languages that you can try with your family and friends, which include multiple activities, ranging from games and drills to useful exercises.
Most kids would like to learn to code, but not every kid at school or in summer-camp has access to computer programming lessons. That's where this book comes in! Using "Scratch," a computer programming language, children can learn all the basics of coding and become more technically skilled. As a block-based visual language, new coders can enter into the realm of programming with ease - and it's fun too!
Developed at MIT, Scratch has grown in popularity because it is currently the most common programming language that is accessible to children. As such, this book introduces the most recent edition of Scratch, Scratch 3.0.0, and includes various projects.
Thus, everything that kids learn from this book will help them acquire new skills and study more technical programming languages in the future. Best of all, the resources are downloadable, accessible online, and easy-to-use through the instructions included in this book.
This book covers the following:
- The Basics of Coding
- Working with Programming Languages
- Exception Handling
- Event-Driven Programming
- Algorithms for Cloning
- Simple Loops and Code Blocks (Functions)
- Variables and their Use
- I/O and Data Handling
- Conditionals
- Lists, Arrays, and Logical Functions
- Introduction to App Lab and Scratch
All this information will help you teach your kids coding, as is presented in this single book.
