Try out a Code Club Scratch project

The best way to learn more about Scratch is to try it out! Start off with a Code Club Scratch project called Lost in space, where you'll be making an animation of a monkey in space!

This will give you the chance to see what it's like to work through one of our projects. You'll be guided through all the steps necessary to create something fun with code.

In Week 2, we'll be looking at the Code Club projects and the different ways in which you can use them in your sessions in detail.

But for now, let's get coding!

The project will take about 20–30 minutes to complete depending on your prior experience. Once you’ve had a go, come back and join in the discussion about how you got on.
