What programs are offered in the trial? 

Foundational Coding:
Drag n Drop Coding w Scratch
Dive into the world of code by coding your own space shooter games, trivia games, music
bands, beautiful computer-generated art and math simulations or tell a story! Perfect for the young beginner, drag n drop coding is the perfect way to start learning to code all while having a good time! Using code blocks that snap together, you can go from newbie to pro without a ton of typing. All you need is a little imagination and you can start to create anything you want including drawing your own characters!
Concepts students will learn: Problem solving skills, basic coding concepts such as variables, conditionals, loops, functions, events and communication skills. They will also learn mathematical concepts such as x-y coordinates, negative numbers, angles, percentages, remainders and more!

Visual/Game Based Python
Like the idea of animations, funny storytelling with characters or making 2 player games to
share with friends? With our visual and interactive Python course, you will get to use a unique drag-to-text platform that guides you through text-based Python in a fun and interactive way using sprites and animations! Whether you're a beginner or have some experience with drag and drop coding, visual Python is a great intermediate step between platforms like Scratch and pure text based courses like Java!
Concepts students will learn: Python in a visual format, problem solving skills, basic coding
concepts such as variables, conditionals, loops, functions, and events! They will also learn
mathematical concepts such as x-y coordinates, negative numbers, angles, percentages,
remainders and more!

Gaming/Game Development Coding: 
Minecraft Coding
