What’s Scratch all about?

Scratch is a programming language for kids that allows for creating animated and interactive games, presentations, websites, and programs for smartphones. Visually Scratch looks like playing with a Lego meccano set, that is, it’s simple and easy to understand. It is the perfect choice as the first programming language.

Why is Scratch the perfect choice?

Learning programming languages is no easy task for an adult, let alone children who find commands and algorithms a very incomprehensible thing. The scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA) have developed visual software where programming is done with the aid of color blocks. This software is ideal for beginning to learn programming.

Let your child make the first step towards programming and get a high-paying profession in the future with a salary starting from $3,000.

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

For creative kids

Learning Scratch helps children develop creativity, think analytically, spot mistakes, and find fun, imaginative solutions to complex problems.

For beginners and experienced learners

This course is perfect for those who are just starting their journey into IT, as well as for kids who already have some experience and want to boost their skills even further.

For kids who love coding

We support your child’s passion and teach them how to create exciting games with enemies, storylines, and surprising twists.

FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO PLAY AND LEARN

This course combines fun and learning, turning games into an amazing opportunity to discover programming and design in an engaging way.
Unique author-designed program
from simple to advanced

This Scratch learning program is designed to help children from 7 years old master the basics of programming in a fun and creative way — by creating their own games and animations with lots of hands-on practice.

Module 1:

Introduction to Scratch and the basics of programming

  • 1.1 Getting to know the scratch.mit.edu website: how to sign up and save projects.
  • 1.2 Interface overview: stage, blocks, sprites, costumes, and scripts.
  • 1.3 Practice: creating your first sprite and moving it with sound.
  • 1.4 Changing costumes to create movement effects or show emotions.
  • 1.5 Practice: your child creates a game with a score based on clicks or touches.
Module 2:

Controlling characters and creating events

  • 2.1 Movement blocks: “move 10 steps,” “turn,” “forever.”
  • 2.2 Connecting actions to keys: “when up arrow pressed,” “down,” “left,” “right.”
  • 2.3 Practice: creating a game where the character collects apples as fast as possible.
  • 2.4 Adding logic: press a button to start, stop, or restart the game.
  • 2.5 Practice: designing a custom game menu with “Play,” “Instructions,” and “Exit” buttons.
Module 3:

Conditions and loops

  • 3.1 The logic of conditions: if the character touches an object, change the background / sound / stage.
  • 3.2 Learning the “if... then... else” block.
  • 3.3 The “forever”, “repeat 10 times”, “wait 1 second” blocks.
  • 3.4 Practical work: creating movable obstacles (such as meteorites falling from above).
  • 3.5 Practical work: a game with three lives and passing on to the next level after survival.
Module 4:

Variables and increasing the game’s complexity

  • 4.1 Creating variables for the score, time, and lives.
  • 4.2 Displaying variables on the screen.
  • 4.3 The Level variable: increasing the complexity after a certain score is achieved.
  • 4.4 Changing the opponents’ speed or the number of objects.
  • 4.5 Practical work: creating a full-fledged game with multiple stages and score.
Module 5:

The final project and presentation

  • 5.1 Discussing the idea: the game's type, goal, and main character.
  • 5.2 Composing the game algorithm on a sheet of paper / as a schematic block diagram.
  • 5.3 Programming of all the parts: motion, conditions, variables, transitions.
  • 5.4 Testing the game: identifying and correcting errors.
  • 5.5 Making up a short story: the name of the game, what it is about, how to play.
  • 5.6 Demonstrating the game to other students or parents.
  • 5.7 Downloading the game to the Scratch website with a link for friends.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Is the trial lesson a general overview of all subjects?
We are honest with our students. The trial lesson is conducted by your future teacher, not a sales manager. That’s why during the trial lesson, your child will explore one chosen learning direction in depth — not all subjects at once.
How does the trial lesson work?
The trial lesson lasts 50 minutes. First, your child meets the teacher and gets to know them in a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. The teacher introduces Scratch, explains the learning program, shows exciting example projects, and then they create a small mini-project together. The trial lesson is completely one-on-one with the teacher. We recommend that one of the parents be present during the lesson.
Who are our teachers?
Our teachers are experienced IT specialists and professional programmers who have been carefully selected to work at our school. Only one of 7 candidates becomes a teacher at our school.
What is the price of the lessons?
The cost depends on the chosen course and subscription plan. Book a trial lesson, and our team will explain all the pricing details, discuss available options, and help you find the best solution for your child!
What is required for studying?
Everything is simple! For your studies you will need a laptop or PC with Internet access. But even if you don’t have a PC, some courses can be taken on a tablet.

📐accessible construction of geometric objects;
🎨find ready-made visual components.


Scratch contains no code. The programme consists of blocks like a Lego constructor

This visual environment.It is what is recommended for an exciting journey into the world of information technology:

Scratch for children relies on associative perception on associative perception. It means the same task is demonstrated with several examples. Constant repetition makes it possible to understand why a particular module works the way it does.

Younger pupils find it hard to absorb much new information.

  • Visual programming eliminates the chance of error and makes it possible to memorise the functionality of the blocks.
  • The latter is depicted as puzzles in different colours. It makes it even easier to remember.
  • The whole process comes down to a quality game, where you need the correct puzzle to be completed. It is the only way to achieve the goal.

The “Scratch for Kids” course covers the basic concepts.It includes:

  • 📖 Theoretical foundations

  • 🛠️ Practical application

At early stages, students:

  • 👾 Develop simple games

  • 🎯 Practice dragging blocks and typing

  • 🔁 Work with similar programs to build memory of functionality


What is learned in the course?

The learner will practise dragging and dropping blocks and typing. All the programs are similar. Therefore, the kid will memorize their functionality. Gradually more complex tasks will be performed. But the variables, algorithms and conditions will remain the same.


👨‍💻Studying the course Scratch Online in Ukrainian the young programmer:
