Computational thinking, coding, and game design can help with critical thinking, following steps/procedures, creativity, focus, and perseverance.

The whole idea of thinking things through, testing it, revising as needed applies to almost all subjects. Reading commands and thinking about what they will do or what's missing takes reading comprehension. Depending on the parameters for designing the game it could easily require knowledge in any subject area.

Coding can help students learn to think logically. This is needed in mathematics and science. Coding follows a procedure to begin with and you must use troubleshooting skills to fix problems. Coding also helps student understand that failure is just a step in the learning process and is not a reason to give up, but a reason to step back and see what can be change to achieve the goal or change the goal.

Ask a CEO of Fortune 500 company what skills they want potential employees to have and the #1 is problem solving and  #2 working in co-operative groups.

I personally do not believe that Scratch is coding but learning logic, (discovering I do not have much, lol). Helps students learn to read, write and interpret expository writing which is applicable in every subject - Math, LA, Science, SS and all Exploratories.

Also useful for State test taking strategies of focusing on every detail,
developing high order thinking

Through the logical thinking processes that teach students to sequentially order the way they work.
Coding will assist students in their writing by making them be concise and efficient with their words.
With game design, students will need to think about their audience and how they communicate with them.

I think computational thinking, coding, and digital gaming can be apply to language development as students need to understand the vocabulary, and be able to follow directions, in order to create a program. It can also be applied to mathematics as it requires understanding of formulas.

Computational Thinking:

I know that Integrating technology into classroom instruction is more than using computers to generate reports and presentations...  Computational thinking, coding, and digital game design use many critical thinking skills, such as: evaluating, synthesizing, analyzing and teaching others.  The application of computational thinking is a pathway to problem solving which is easily transferable to other academic subjects and everyday life.

It can give students another way to be creative and make their own programs. They can be ready then for 21st century jobs.

Computational thinking, coding, and digital game design can be used to introduce new concepts, assess learned concepts in any subject or as a tool to teach others a concept.

From what we have learned, gaming is taking over a lot of different aspects of life. It is our responsibility as educators to get our students ready for the next step whether that be their careers or college. Testing the student's knowledge of the content while making a game in the process is a fun and exciting way to test their skills.
In English, they might create a game telling a story about the book they just read.
In Science, maybe they show a Volcano erupting.
In PE maybe they show how to play a certain game.

Review

English - after reading a book, students can create their own game using characters from the story.

Computational thinking builds into the students perseverance.

Computational thinking, coding, and digital game design can be used by students and teachers to develop "Project Based Learning".

Computational thinking, coding, and digital game design can be used by any subject area to enhance the learning experience and make difficult, mundane tasks fun.

Can provide another medium for students to practice academic skills and strategies.
Then they can create there own problem for another student to solve... or create a problem and solution to demonstrate their understanding.

Writing (informational text -step by step processes, summaries, fiction, etc.), Math (coordinates, games), Creativity (a biggie that will incorporate high-order thinking...at least in theory!),  just to mention a few.

If students are accustomed to sitting with a challenge, being comfortable with the problem solving process, and getting things wrong many times before getting them right it will help build tenacity for the multistep problems they're getting more and more in standardized assessments.
