Grade 2-3 Program FAQs
What makes Grade 2-3 different from KG-1?
Grade 2-3 introduces text-based concepts alongside block coding, more complex game design with multiple platforms (Scratch, App Lab), and applied AI through Teachable Machine. Children learn to code across multiple environments and create more sophisticated projects.
Does my child need prior coding experience?
No prior experience is required! The Cadet track starts with Minecraft coding and basic concepts. If your child has completed our KG-1 program, they can transition smoothly to the Captain or higher tracks.
What devices are needed?
Most activities work on a laptop or desktop computer. Some AI features require a webcam. Minecraft Education requires installation (we provide guidance). Tablets can be used for certain activities but computers are recommended.
How does the AI curriculum work?
Children learn AI concepts hands-on through Teachable Machine (training image/sound classifiers) and integrating AI into their games. They understand how AI learns from data while creating practical, fun projects.
What's the difference between Sprite Lab, Scratch, and App Lab?
Sprite Lab is great for game basics with visual coding. Scratch offers more advanced game logic and AI integration. App Lab introduces real app development with UI design and data handling. Together, they provide comprehensive coding literacy.
