Election Evening

HCOS invites you to join us for
a Scratch Programming and Makey Makey Camp

 

Don't sit around playing video games, come join us and learn how to program your own arcade style games.  This learning camp will teach computer programming concepts using Scratch.  Scratch is a user friendly, icon based program language created for kids at the MIT Media Lab.  In this class you won't just be writing code, you will be learning to think creatively and reason systematically.  Makey Makey will also be incorporated into some of the design challenges.  This is a great class for any aspiring programmer.
