Abstract: This study examined how Scratch programming changed grade seven creativity, reasoning, and problem-solving skills through project-based learning (PBL). Multi-method data collection included self-assessment surveys, quarterly skills evaluations, and open-ended responses to ensure consistency. Before PBL, students indicated they were moderately to very creative (weighted mean = 3.71), but they had problems implementing what they learned and often imitated others instead of coming up with their own ideas. Their Quarter 2 performance (mean = 78.25%, SD = 6.82) demonstrated that they struggled with debugging (WM = 3.44) and methodical planning (WM = 3.76). PBL led to significant improvements in creativity and logic (WM = 3.79) and Quarter 3 evaluation scores (mean = 91.90%, SD = 4.44; t = -26.4, p
