Teaching Scratch Science

Teach Science using Scratch Coding

• Modelling in science NGSS
• Computational Models are dynamic representations of scientific phenomena
• Simulating Science forces students to develop a deep understanding
• The goals of Scratch - turning browsers into makers - constructionism
• When to lead, when to let students lead
• Open source - how/when to build on other's work

Starter Simulations

• Ball Drop Example
•
