Lesson 10 V3

This lesson plan introduces a project-based learning activity where students will use the Scratch programming environment to create an educational project related to various curricular areas. Students can work individually or in groups to design games, animations, or stories that teach math, language, science, and other subjects. The plan provides examples of project ideas and encourages students to integrate skills from across the curriculum. The goal is for students to independently develop personally meaningful projects that demonstrate their learning.
