This case study focused on integrating Scratch in fifth and sixth grade classrooms in five different schools to enhance learning outcomes and equip students with computational thinking skills. It utilized project based learning to encourage active learning experiences and student-centered designs, enhancing motivation and enthusiasm towards programming concepts. The study demonstrated significant improvements in students' understanding of programming concepts and logic through the visual blocks creative computing test (VBCCT) intervention, leading to enhanced learning outcomes. Positive outcomes were observed in areas such as active learning, art and history comprehension, computational concepts understanding, and perceived usefulness, highlighting the effectiveness of the intervention in engaging students and enhancing their skills. The integration of visual programming languages was recommended to enhance students' understanding of logic, mathematics, and content creation, emphasizing the importance of innovative teaching methods in educational settings. The case study showed that students showed high levels of motivation, fun, commitment, and enthusiasm towards learning through the pedagogical approach. Finally, the study highlighted the impact of integrating visual programming language, like Scratch, in primary education, enhancing students' computational thinking, problem-solving skills, and overall engagement in learning processes.
