Completed "Learn to Code with Blockly" – My First Step Into Programming 🧠💻
This week, I took on the challenge of learning a new programming skill as part of Module 10. I chose the “Learn to Code with Blockly” course on Codecademy—and I’m happy to share that I completed it 100%! 🎉
Over the course of 2 hours and 15 minutes, I worked through a series of interactive lessons that covered:
Using movement commands to solve logic puzzles
Working with variables (including Boolean variables like game_over = true)
Creating and calling functions
Writing conditional logic with if, else if, and else statements
Navigating mazes and completing challenges using limited block logic (which really made me think!)
One of the most rewarding parts was using minimal blocks to reach goals—strategically thinking through every move before placing a block. It felt a lot like solving a visual riddle.
This course showed me that coding doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Blockly helped me grasp core programming concepts visually, making it both approachable and fun for a beginner like me. I now feel much more confident moving into more advanced topics in coding!
🧩 Takeaway: Programming is more about logic and creativity than just typing code—anyone can start, and Blocky is an awesome entry point. PS: Find the attached Screenshot for the progress.
