Scratch Week

Scratch Week is a global, virtual celebration of Scratch and ScratchJr. Stay tuned for more information about Scratch Week 2024!

During Scratch Week, we invite everyone to imagine, create, and share along with us in the Scratch online community all week long in our featured studios and daily themes.

How to Participate

Imagine

With Scratch and ScratchJr, people of all ages can program their own interactive stories, games, and animations. Whether you are new to Scratch or a long-time user, we invite you to imagine what you would like to create!

Create

During Scratch Week, you can visit the “Featured Studios” section of the Scratch online community from Monday to Friday to find the daily themes and create your own project.

If you are an educator looking for more information on how to get started with Scratch Week, check out last year’s Scratch Week Guide here.

The Scratch website will feature studios for each of the daily themes. A studio is like an online gallery: it’s a collection of projects based on a certain theme. Add your Scratch Week projects to the studios and see what others around the world have created. Want to learn how to share a Scratch project to a studio? Here’s a step-by-step guide!

The Scratch Team will be sharing daily updates on the Scratch Twitter account. Share your Scratch Week experience on Twitter using the hashtag #ScratchWeek.
