The ScratchJr Coding Cards are a deck of 75 activity cards covering
fun and exciting projects designed to educate young children with
the visual programming language, ScratchJr. ScratchJr is a free,
introductory computer programming language that runs on iPads,
Android tablets, Amazon tablets, and Chromebooks. Derived from
Scratch, the wildly popular programming language used by millions
of kids worldwide, ScratchJr helps even younger children (5 to 7
years old) create their own playful animations, interactive
stories, and dynamic games. The ScratchJr Coding Cards encourage
kids to think creatively and systematically while developing
computational thinking skills. Kids will learn powerful ideas about
computer science by using ScratchJr programming blocks to make
characters move, jump, dance, sing, and more. As they work through
the deck, they will become creative thinkers and problem solvers.
Written by the ScratchJr co-creator, Prof. Marina Umaschi Bers, and
Dr. Amanda Sullivan, the exercises in ScratchJr Coding Cards will

concepts for literacy, math, planning, and problem-solving, all
while having fun. The cards are created using the pedagogical
approach developed by Prof. Bers to teach coding in a playful way
