For Ages 7-10

Understand the world and its interconnected systems through the lens of the Earth and Life Sciences. At the same time, build up foundational knowledge of computer science concepts as you apply them through thematic projects on Scratch.

  • Available in hybrid format (Online & Offline)
    Parents can opt for the online format, up to a week before the start of workshop
  • No experience necessary
  • Integrate science with code and discover the real-world applications of STEM in the world
  • Dive deep into Earth Sciences – let’s learn more about climate change!
  • Apply solutions to combat climate change by building a coding project in Scratch – some familiarity

All you need to know

There are many human activities that cause damage to the environment, but do you know which one?

Learn about these activities and come up with some solutions to protect our Mother Earth!

Finally, apply the knowledge of Event blocks to create a game in Scratch, where you’ll need to plant trees to combat global warming

In the process, kids develop to creativity, curiosity, and a growth mindset.

Science and coding outcomes are aligned to K12 Standards (K12 CS Framework, Next Generation Science Standards, Singapore MOE Science Syllabus, National Curriculum in England Science Programme).

For online format, your child will require: 

  • A computer or laptop with a working webcam and microphone, in order to participate in class and for our instructor to check their understanding. Kindly avoid sharing devices.
  • Internet speed of 25Mbps or above. You can check your internet speed here.

Oh! The stuff you'll learn

  • Identify positive and negative impact from human interaction with the environment
  • Provide solutions to stop pollution
  • Understand the concept of Events in Scratch
  • Apply the Events concept using when this sprite clicked block

Life skills you'll learn

Creative Confidence
Logical Thinking
Problem Solving

Pedagogy

No lectures. No memorisation. No ONE right answer. Like real life, we're all about trying things out yourself, failing, figuring what went wrong & trying again. These are the skills & mindset that will last a lifetime and how we learn in real life. Let's get kids to learn how to learn. Because the kids who learn to learn become curious, inventive, resourceful human beings who solve real world problems to make a meaningful impact.

What If..

Should government regulations advise against in-person classes, this workshop will be shifted online

The happiest hours of your child's week

"My child loved Science with Code, and asked why his school can't teach like this! Looks like you are transforming the way science is taught."

"In Science with Code, we actually get to do hands-on stuff like coding; we get to learn how things get invented in real life, instead of just using them."
