sprites and backdrops used in a project. You can add, delete, see the name and
location, increase and decrease the size of a Sprite and a backdrop. You can also
create new Sprites and backdrops in Scratch.
Blocks Palette: It displays the categories of blocks based on their functions and
uses. These blocks within the same category share the same colour which allows
better distinction of the parts of a program.
Coding Area: It is also called the scripts area where you stack your blocks to
create scripts. If you save a project with a script, the script will also be saved.
When we click on a script, all the blocks execute from top to bottom.
