This beginner-level course is aimed at students who have mastered block-based coding and are ready to learn text-based coding. Students will get introduced to text-based coding through the Coding Adventure program from CodeMonkey. The course will be 18 weeks long with one 85-minutes lesson every week. It will be divided into 2 units and each unit will consist of 9 lessons. You can register your child for Unit 1 and Unit 2 separately, or both the units together.
In the first 9 lessons under Unit 1, the students will understand the fundamentals of text-based coding as they help a monkey catch bananas in fun-filled coding challenges. They will continue the fun-filled learning as they meet new characters and learn more advanced coding concepts like functions and conditions.
In the Unit 2 lessons, students will learn more advanced coding concepts like Boolean logic, comparison operators, return values and triggering events. They will create a medium complexity game for application of all those coding concepts.
