Bird is a deep-dive into conditionals. Control-flow is explored with increasingly complex conditions.

Turtle is a deep-dive into loops. Use nested loops to paint a picture.

Computer science skills help students collaborate, create and make nearly every subject seem more relevant. Blockly Games encourages the development of tomorrow's programmers. Designed to be self-paced, Blockly Games can be downloaded for offline use, ensuring accessibility for all students and technology. All code is open source, meaning it is free and customizable to meet your needs. See the developer's website for more information.
