Network & Schedule

Get ready for playful learning! The magic of meetups stems from the powerful connections that form between educators. When you walk into a meetup, you can grab a snack, meet someone new through a fun ice breaker, and help to build the schedule for the day based on the groups' interests.

Explore & Learn

Like your students, your creativity flourishes when you have time to experiment, create, play, and tinker! For the core of the meetup, you might start a new Scratch project, explore ideas related to your creative computing teaching practice, embark on a Scratch challenge, and more.

Share & Reflect

Sharing and reflecting are integral components to any creative practice. For the final portion of the meetup, reflect on how you might apply your learning from the day to your classroom practice, s hare your ideas with the rest of the group, and learn about a cool project that a fellow educator is working on.


Get the most out of a Scratch Educator Meetup by…

Asking Questions

Allow yourself to be the learner—to not know, and to discover what's possible by asking for support from others.

Sharing Your Ideas

Whether you are new to Scratch or a long-time learner, trust that your thoughts and ideas matter in this space.

Embracing Fearlessness

Uncertainty is an essential part of the creative process. Be kind and patient with yourself as you try new things.
