CLOVER by 4‑H x Google Activities
CLOVER by 4‑H recently released three new activities, designed by the University of Georgia Extension and brought to you by Google, focused on educating youth about computer science with the help of Scratch. Scratch is a visual programming language designed to teach programming concepts fun and intuitively by allowing users to create animations, games, and interactive stories.
Youths are invited to complete the following activities:
- Introducing Commands ([link removed] ) — an introduction to basic coding and using commands in Scratch. Explore the simple commands of "move" and "turn" by coding a graphic to complete a maze.
- Jumping Sprite — Introducing Functions ([link removed] ) — create a simple jumping game in Scratch to explore how functions are used.
- "Say My Name" Introducing Variables ([link removed] ) — an introduction to coding with variables in Scratch. During this activity, you will tell a story using code.

"When you feel different, oftentimes, the natural inclination is to isolate. In reality, the remedy is the complete opposite. 4‑H has always offered me a seat at the table. It allowed me to take part in one of the greatest gifts you can offer another human: Community."
