Teaching for several years kids programming and computer science. I started with Scratch and app inventor, but then discovered SNAP. still excited about SNAP. Its a full blown programming environment and allows to teach advanced stuff to 12 year old I learned in University being twice that age.

Thanks for helping with Snap!Con 2020!
I would like to show how to utilize Snap!_ to prepare for learning Python: We have created Python language blocks in Snap! so the Snap! code can be generated into Python code and the blocks in SNAP also feel already Pythonish. The aim is to provide early success and an understanding of the Python language in Snap! before touching a text editor and getting into the world of syntax and typing. We will demo what we have done and what we learned.
