Co-creation of Scratch narratives illustrated and animated by children from 4 to 6 years old

Article:

The “Childhood with Scratch in motion” project is developed with kindergarten children and aims to show how Scratch from MIT Media Lab (an application and visual programming language for children) can promote spontaneous social playing (SSP) of children with the mediated intervention of parents and teachers. The promotion methodology is composed of several sequential stages, in which children can play and create with Scratch. This communication aims to present the children’s projects created in Scratch, connecting them to the stages of the SSP promotion. These projects are multimedia animations that integrate scenarios, characters, accessories and objects, which are drawing by children or imported from the Scratch illustrations library.
