What do students learn?

This programme is part of the LCCL Core Curriculum, and its instructional design is guided by the LCCL Progression Framework. By the end of Coding Fundamentals levels 1, 2, and 3, the learner would have:

1. Attained a mastery of fundamental coding concepts
2. Applied computational problem solving strategies
3. Developed a portfolio of total of 22 - 27 projects including animation, games and apps

This camp follows the Coding Fundamentals Level 1(CF1) curriculum. It starts the beginner in fun and engaging projects where they code animations and games. Each lesson is scaffolded and learning objectives of each project build upon earlier ones.

Fundamental Coding Concepts

• Introduction to code and computing technology
• Sequencing
• Event-based programming
• Loops
• Variables
• Conditionals

Animation and Game Coding Concepts

• Project design and planning
• Storyboarding
• Timing multiple sprites
• Different ways to code movements
• Using sound and effects
• Sprite communication

Computational Thinking and Problem Solving

• Algorithms
• Pattern Recognition
• Decomposition
• Evaluation

Technology

• Scratch 3.0

FAQs

How do I know if my child is suitable for this?

Contact us for a free trial class. Our teachers will assess your child's suitability and advise accordingly.

How is LccL's Scratch camps different?

Our Coding Fundamentals curriculum is proven to produce students who are well-versed with code and computational thinking, as they are trained in-depth to code complex solutions with Scratch. With strong fundamentals, graduates pick up other disciplines much faster and easier. As a gauge, most CF3 graduates complete the Robotics and Python curriculum in half the time as one without foundational backing.

Is the class in-person?

This is an in-person class, held at LccL Coding Academy's flagship Tanglin campus. Contact us if you need an alternative.
