Children will learn and practice their coding skills by using Matatalab's Home Edition Coding Set. With the assistance of an adult or parent, this self-paced online course will guide your child in learning how to code using colourful plastic blocks to represent coding commands - with no screens needed!
Objectives
Children will construct their understanding of coding with their hands directly. There is no coding experience required and learning to code becomes easy as playing with building blocks. The intuitive symbol design uses directional language as no literacy is required in completing the activities. Children will practice their coding skills in various game-based activities, then put their learning to the test by designing their own game from scratch and sharing it with others.
