Scratch is a programming language designed to help young people (ages 8 and up) develop 21st-century learning skills. Scratch makes it easy to create interactive stories, animations, games, music, and art--and to share these creations on the web. As they create Scratch projects, young people learn important mathematical and computational ideas, while also gaining a deeper understanding of the process of design.
