Scratch Coding Game – Let's get  coding!

In collaboration with Code Club Australia powered by the Telstra Foundation, we have created a Scratch coding project for Electricity Safety Week targeted at students in Years 3 or above.

What is scratch programming?
Scratch Programming is a block-based visual coding language used to teach coding to primary-aged students in a simple, fun way. It’s easily accessible and free to use on scratch.mit.edu.

Help your students be a coding electricity safety whizz!
Our scratch project is aligned to the Digital Technologies curriculum. It is designed to be delivered in a 45-minute lesson and will help students create an interactive game on electricity safety. Teachers can use the step-by-step lesson guide with key curriculum outcomes and a starter project already developed in Scratch.

Electricity & safety unit for Years 5 & 6

  • Endeavour Energy has developed an Electricity & Safety Unit for Years 5 & 6 that is aligned with the NSW Science & Technology Stage 3 syllabus.  You can download it here.
  • Developed in collaboration with the NSW Department of Education, the resources include a downloadable lesson book and four complementary interactive whiteboard lessons with embedded videos, virtual experiments and interactive diagrams to engage your students in learning about electricity and how to be safe around it.

Interactive safety expert videos

Join our safety trainer Warwick for two 15-minute interactive sessions on electrical safety. Students will need pen and paper to participate in activities throughout the sessions.
