“The instructor is fantastic with kids! My son used to just watch videos, but now he proudly builds his own animations. It’s amazing to see him think logically at age 6. ”
Parent of an 6-year-old student
“ I like making my cat run and jump on the iPad. I even recorded my own voice for the characters! Class is really fun, just like playing a game ”

FAQs

What is Scratch Jr ?
Scratch Jr is an introductory programming language that enables young children (ages 5-7) to create their own interactive stories and games. It creates a stepping stone to the more advanced Scratch language used by older kids.
Does my child need to know how to read?
No. Scratch Jr uses graphical symbols (icons) rather than text. If your child can recognize pictures and colors, they can succeed in this course.


How are the classes conducted?
Students can learn in three flexible formats:
  • Live Online – interactive sessions with American instructors
  • Self-Paced – video lessons to study anytime
  • In-Person – available at select EonSTEM Academy locations
What comes after this course?
Students continue to Scratch Jr Animation 201 for more complex projects.
