Make it
Combine shapes to build a snowman. Decide what each shape will become.
Turn your ideas into things you can play with.
Make a character move, invent a mini-game, or build an interactive world. With Playground Engineer Studio, students start with visual blocks on iPad and explore the code behind what they make.
Make it. Change it. Explain it.
A snowman can start with a few circles and turn into an experiment with patterns, motion, and code.
Change it
Use a repeat block to make matching buttons. Change the number of repeats and see what happens.
Explain it
Open Read Code, find the instructions for the buttons, and explain what your change did.
Real growth. With proof.
A finished project shows what a student made. Hearing them explain a decision, test a change, or fix a bug shows how they learned.

Turn the iPads you already have into a creation lab.
Invite students to build a project in PGE Studio, share it with peers, and explain the choices that made it work. Ask us about a hands-on creation activity for your classroom, library, or group.
