Using the Playground

The CodeHop Playground is a place where students can complete activities that are assigned by a teacher or create their own open ended projects. As a teacher, you can create projects, view and complete course assignments, and view student Playgrounds.

Select Playground from the left navigation bar to open your Playground. From here, you will be able to see the different project folders for each of your Sections as well as a thumbnail photo for any Scratch or ScratchJr program you’ve worked on.
