Start here

Welcome to the "Programming from the ground up" blog!

This blog has been created for me to share some information about getting started with programming with my grand-nephew and those he spends time with. If others can see it and find it useful, then so be it!


Generally speaking, the information is presented in a logical order in a series of numbered blog entries, although of course you can jump around as you see fit. Below are the posts that I have created so far.




1 First things first
2 Getting started with Scratch Jr
3 Welcome to code.org
4 Scratch and Snap


This year I am planning to do some work with a local high school (Yr 7-10) in ICT extension activities. I will update this site based on feedback and experience from this work.
