    SCRATCHJR PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE

                      ScratchJr is a programming language that is developed for young children to
                      create their own interactive projects through coding. Using ScratchJr, students

                      can snap together various blocks to make characters move, jump, dance and
                      sing. This language encourages creativity and expression by enabling children

                      to modify how their characters look and design their own background.

                                BLOCKS OF SCRATCHJR

                      Blocks are like puzzle-piece shapes that are used to create code in ScratchJr.

                      We connect the blocks to each other like jigsaw puzzles. Blocks are easier to
                      use than text-based programming as they do not need to be memorised like

                      typed commands. The series of connected blocks is known as a script. We
                      drag the blocks into the programming area to create a script.
