ScratchJr is a visual programming language designed for young children (ages 5-7) to introduce them to the basics of coding. These worksheets focus on the fundamental blocks in ScratchJr, particularly those that control character movement. By completing these activities, children will learn how to make characters move, jump, and interact within a digital story or game. This helps build foundational computational thinking skills like sequencing and problem-solving while encouraging creativity and self-expression. 🤸♀️
