I'm glad you have decided to join us in Coding Club!
Whether you know any coding already, or if this is all new you to, let's warm up by trying out some fun 'Hour of Code" activities.
These basic computer programming activities are part of a really great campaign called "The Hour of Code". This is an initiative to try to introduce computer science, and the power of computer programming, to as many people as possible, all over the world!
Start by watching this really short intro video http://code.org/ (please make sure you're wearing headphones!), and then you will get to choose your own activity for the rest of the club session. You can choose from any of the activities below:
Easiest Beginner Activities:
-Frozen! Help Anna and Elsa to draw snowflakes, using block coding.
-Angry Birds! Help the Angry Birds to catch the nasty pig, using block coding.
-Make an avatar out of simple shapes using block coding - Made with Code
-Animate lights on a dress for a fashion show using block coding - Made with Code
-Be the DJ - Mix your own music track with block coding - Made with Code
