About


some filler picture

We (Meghan Rose Allen, PhD and Matthew Betti, PhD) are two mathematics professors from Mount Allison University who worked with Marshview Middle School's Engage Program in Fall 2023, running the computer programming elective. These Scratch activities were developed by Dr Matt and tested by Dr Meghan. They are suitable for grade school children through adults, for anyone interested in developing programming skills via Scratch.




Contact Us


Were we your Engage instructors? We want to see more of your projects. Send us the Scratch links to us via our email.

Or did you stumble on here somehow else and want to chat about teaching programming? We would love it.

We are actively looking to extend and turn these lesson plans into a book. If you are a publisher, we are happy to discuss possibilities with you.
