ctrudden : It looks like Scratch Jr was removed from the Chrome Web Store at the end of January 2020. It is now only available on Chromebooks using the Google Play Store (that I'm aware of) which is an Additional Service and requires parent permission. Since our district is 1) new to the Chromebook game and 2) heavy heavy into student privacy it is not as easy as just turning the Google Play store on for students.
What's worse is that we developed a fabulous unit with a Cornerstone Task that utilized Scratch Jr for our First Graders and they were/are in the middle of the unit when this change took place.
iPads are not an option in many of our schools. Does anyone know of any alternatives or work arounds to this issue that I'm not aware of?
Thanks in Advance!
