Help! I need Ideas for Middle School Programs At A Public Library

Hey Scratchers,

I am the president of the Middle School Advisory Board at my local public library (which is actually how I got to teach two Scratch classes  big_smile ). Anyway, I've been trying to think of new programs for middle school students at the library. Do you guys have any ideas?

Currently we have chess club, Pokemon club, Lego club, some trips (like the Hunger Games Movie Field Trip, etc.) Graphic Novel Club, Scratch Class (taught by me), and soon we'll be starting a monthly Scratch club  big_smile . So... I was wondering if you guys, since a lot of you are around middle school age, had any ideas. It would be a great help!

Thanks so much,

undefeatedgames

P.S. If this needs to be moved somewhere else, please do so.

Please call me udg or bearsfan, not undefeated.

What's Meccano?

Something that appeals to a wider range than what you currently have.

I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

Re: Help! I need Ideas for Middle School Programs At A Public Library

Your school sounds fun. We have only one elective per person, and they're all pretty lame
Hmm let's see
A book club would be good for a library
Also, creative writing club, Harry Potter club, Doctor Who club (ahahaha), craft club (you could decorate journals, make clay figures [bad idea for a library actually], beaded jewelry, draw and laminate bookmarks...) etc. I dunno

Artificial Intelligence club?

SED is temporarily abandoned while I move onto new areas, such as AI with pathfinding, individual reactions, and group communication.  More complex projects are also brewing.
