Virtual Fun Workshops by Junior Game Creators

Choosing a Virtual Game Making Workshop: Our Virtual Workshops using Scratch are separated into 4 different categories:

  • New Learners only – This FREE introductory session is tailored for new visitors to Junior Game Creators and is where the first step to coding glory takes place. (typically suits ages 7 to 11).
  • Novice – Here we have some basic and easy going games in Scratch to help prepare for the challenges ahead. (typically suits ages 7 to 11).
  • Intermediate – Things just stepped up a bit as these games now start to involve more complex code and functions of Scratch. (typically suits ages 9 to 11).
  • Advanced – Created for seasoned Scratchers, the games found here will challenge the most confident of users. (typically suits ages 10 to 12).

Lesson requirements: Prior to attending any session the following steps will ensure you get off to a good start;

Step 1: Visit https://scratch.mit.edu to create a Free Scratch User Account (click Join Scratch top right of the Scratch home page).

Step 2: Download and install  Zoom.

All of these are free.

What do they do in each workshop?  Learners watch the host then use a shared worksheet to create cool, fun games and boost skills like literacy, numeracy, creativity, independence, problem solving, communication and perseverance.

Going Virtual: Workshops are hosted using the free webinar application Zoom. Logging in to their Junior Game Creator Profile and Scratch account prior to their session is recommended. Apart from that, all they’ll need is their imagination and a comfy chair.

Timing: Multiple 1 hour sessions held daily.

1-2-1 tuition by Junior Game Creators

If the virtual or physical classroom is a bit hectic to unleash your true genius – relax and receive the full attention and expertise of our game creating gurus in a 1-2-1 hour long virtual session.

Timing: 1 hour session held every Tuesday and Thursday
What they’ll need: Attendees will need a Junior Game Creators profile as well as a Scratch profile. Both of these are free. You can create a Junior Game Creators profile here. For help registering a Scratch account, please visit the getting started section. Classes are hosted using the free webinar application Zoom. Downloading Zoom prior to the lesson and logging in to the above profiles is recommended. Apart from that, all they’ll need is their imagination and a comfy chair.
What do they do? In a 1-2-1 setting the possibilities are endless. Want to develop a quick clicker game? Let’s do it. Or maybe an epic saga with dragons and bosses and such? That’s more than welcome. Having trouble with your own game? We’ll show you how to fix it.

We have found that teaching and learning without the restrictions and distractions of a classroom environment accelerates understanding and results in a more enriching and rewarding experience.

Don’t see a time that suits you? Please get in touch to discuss a more convenient period.
