Good exposure to coding for kids My son had a great time over winter break completing a 4 day Coding a Game program. He learned different computer science terms and was able to create a game on the CodeSpark platform by the end of the week. It's a good experience.

NOT SO GOOD The gameplay, and coding activities are fun but... *You can not demo or model this game as a teacher if you signed in through Clever (they won't even give me another account to sign in so I can play it even though I have paid for a subscription already.) It is hard for kids to scroll down to basic levels as there is no scroll bar, so if you are using laptops, PCs, or Chromebooks, it is very hard for little kids to do it. It often kicks kids out after they finish level 8, afterwhich, they need to go back to the homepage, scroll down to the level they were on, click on it so that level 9 shows up. “Game stuff" should be at the bottom and the coding levels should be at the top. Some of the answers they provide on their guide (Kite Plight) are WRONG. There should be an arrow so students can easily switch screens between levels 1-8 then to 9-16 (or 17) There are often problems going back to a page and there is an error. You have to reopen it, log out, then open it again to log back in, very frustrating. After contacting them, they don't seem to be too interested in fixing anything.

My son enjoys the class My son enjoys the class, and says the instruction is fun and engaging! He wishes there was a higher level, though, as he doesn't feel challenged every session. I would highly recommend codeSpark Academy to other parents.

Fun app and engaging classes Both of my kids (6 and 12) enjoy using the app. They are learning about coding while having fun. My 6-yr-old is also taking the classes, and she always looks forward to it. The online classes are engaging, and students get to show and tell about their work.

My kids both really enjoy CodeSpark My kids both really enjoy CodeSpark! The material is suitable for both my 5 year old and 8 year old who both have about one year of coding experience from other apps. We have tried several coding apps and they outgrew most of the others already, but they still enjoy CodeSpark very much! We recently tried one of the courses they offer and the staff was awesome and the course was fun!
