DescriptionCoding NP teaches your child to code by helping them make their own custom video games! Our Project based, multi-level classes are amazingly fun yet very effective in teaching creative problem solving AND emotional resilience. As the students bring their ideas to life, they iterate through the emotional cycle of Coding (idea > excitement > effort > frustration > more effort > triumph!)
With our support and positive encouragement. Repeating this cycle not only builds great coders, but more importantly, develops emotional persistence that will help students enjoy taking on new challenges in all aspects of their lives. Students new to coding will participate in the Coding NP core curriculum, learning the fundamental elements of coding using MIT's Scratch to create their very own computer games!
Many parents and educators are realizing that the benefits of learning to code at a young age extend far beyond the skill itself. Through the "brain exercise" of coding, coders build intelligence like athletes build muscles. Just as importantly, they develop stronger problem solving skills, confidence over technology, and emotional persistence. For more info, visit codingNP.org
