Scratch Programming 08/21/2017

Kids here at Alpha STEM for the Gifted have been able to learn about Scratch Programming, an online software made for kids for primary schoolers.

In learning scratch, many of these kids have learned about how to make simulations, animations, and create their own video games from the many ideas they have.

This experience has provided these children lots of interest in the world of Programming and its languages, eager to explore more.
