Happy Coding: Game Coding with Python-In Person

Grades 4-5

Happy Code Club presents: Game Coding with Python. Game design with python will teach students the power of this coding language as it relates to creating games. Python is an easy to learn yet powerful computer language, used by leading companies such as YouTube and Google, among many others. In this class, students will work to create simple games like rock, paper, scissors, turtle race and/or secret messages (which works on encryption). Each project is easy for beginners to grasp and provides a transition into more complex concepts and games. Students will also learn how to problem solve errors in a computer program through a technique called “debugging” that will help students identify and fix their problems to get their game to working perfectly!

Prerequisites: Ability to follow written and visual instructions, careful attention to spelling and
details are essential.
