Coding projects for middle and high school students
If you are looking for coding projects for beginners or middle and high school students, you’ve come to the right place.
codeguppy.com website contains tons of JavaScript projects that are both educational and fun! All our projects are pure JavaScript and they don’t require knowledge of any other web technology such as HTML or CSS.
The p5.js library (which is at the core of the codeguppy.com website) enables almost all our projects. Using p5.js, our JavaScript projects are interacting with a predefined 800x600 canvas in order to implement animations, games... but also serious math and algorithmic programs.
Let’s explore some of our included projects and understand the intended audience.
Draw with code programs
To offer a quick and fun introduction into the wonderful world of coding to younger people, codeguppy.com contains a series of Draw with code programs and activities. We even encourage educators to print these programs and distribute them to students to type them in!
You can find these programs in the Drawing section of our website as well as under the Hour of Code section. We even have Turtle graphics if that’s your thing!
Please don’t skip the Download section which contains some really interesting materials.
