Imagine your students playing video games while simultaneously learning to code and create their own! These courses offer interactive lessons that build a solid foundation in coding while students explore the game’s exciting features. Below is a brief overview of what your students will experience. For a more in-depth understanding, consider taking our Kodable Creator Professional Development Course for teachers.

Each Game Design course consists of four unique missions: Debug, Elevate, Hack, and Master. Students progress through these missions by completing specific objectives, building the coding skills they need to prepare for designing their own game in Free Create.

For assistance with lesson planning in Creator, check out our Kodable Creator Planner. for a detailed pacing guide.

Mission Structure
Each mission includes clear, step-by-step objectives to make learning fun and manageable.

This is the first course your students will be introduced to. In this challenge, they’ll take control of a flying object that maneuvers through space, avoids dangers, and strategically interacts with objects to progress through the game.

In this game students will control their player to jump, drop, and move left and right.

In this game, an extra challenge awaits as students have the opportunity to edit a multi-level game.

Key Quest brings a fun, maze-like challenge where students get to put all their skills from the first three courses to the test—and take it up a notch with a new programming skill.

Once students have mastered their first course, they’ll unlock the Free Create level! Kodable Creator celebrates the creativity of coding, affirming that there's no single "right" or "wrong" approach to programming your objects. In Free Create, students can:

Kodable’s STEM courses make coding fun with real-world themes like the solar system, animal habitats, and the ocean food chain. Students build problem-solving skills while exploring these interactive, hands-on lessons. Click here for a video to learn more!

Designed for grades 3-5, Creator meets diverse learning needs! CatBot, our bilingual AI assistant, provides clear instructions with simple text, verbal cues, and visual guidance via the "Need Help" button. This ensures all students can learn and enjoy coding, regardless of reading or writing abilities.

At the end of each course and during Free Create, students can ask CatBot, our AI coding companion, specific questions to get help designing their own games. Students can ask up to 5 questions per day, but with a Premium+ subscription, they’ll have unlimited access to CatBot’s assistance.
