About the Class
Tech Requirements

Each month, we offer several free virtual workshops for our Accelerate students to participate in. The students all gather on Zoom to learn and practice real skills while also collaborating with others, building social skills, and having fun! 

Plus students get to work together and share their creations with the group!

Our virtual Adventurer Game Design class is recommended for kids 6-8 years old and is perfect for kids who are interested in learning game design basics. We use Scratch, a kid-friendly and web-based game engine developed by MIT, to teach coding, and we also cover topics like logic flow, digital art, sound implementation, and more. 

At the end of each 8-week unit, students will have finished their own game and gained many new skills!
