This class covers basic Computer Science principles and programming constructs in detail. We focus on problem solving alone and in pairs. This helps foster communication skills and also helps children to improve significantly on their logical reasoning.
We do most of the practical exercises using computers, but we also do unplugged programming sessions. This normally involves solving a particular problem on a white board or piece of paper. These un-plugged programming sessions sometimes involve working as a team, where for instance, one child is the programmer and the other child is the computer.
Programming is done mainly using Scratch, however we also use other tools to supplement what we learn with Scratch. This helps the children see that there are many ways in which computers can be programmed.
