Scratch+Day

Last year 300 Scratch educators and enthusiasts attended the first Scratch@MIT conference ([|http://scratch.mit.edu/conference/]).

This year, scratch is trying something different. They are reaching out to the Scratch community to organize a network of gatherings, on the same day in all parts of the world, where people can meet, share, and learn more about Scratch. Already, Scratch Day events are being planned in Hong Kong, Japan, Palestine, Russia, South Korea, and the United States.

What Pentucket Scratch Day look like? A Saturday morning drop in at the high school to introduce the community to computer program and gaming. Hands on activities will be arranged to introduce kids to creating animation and games. Activities will also take advantage of the global nature of the event. Students will know they are part of a worldwide event. To learn more about Scratch Day, revisit this site, email lbarlow@prsd.org and see [|http://day.scratch.mit.edu]
