                      The method of
                    programming with
                    building code with
                    blocks is referred to
                    as "drag-and-drop
                      programming".

                   if the Sprite is on the

                    around so that it is
                   facing the other way.                Looks blocks control how a Sprite appears on stage.
                                                        Sound blocks control sound functions. We can add music
                                                      to our Scratch project by using Sound blocks.

                                                        Events blocks actually control how the blocks in a script,
                                                      will start to run, if a particular action is done.

                                                        Events blocks control events and the starting of scripts.
                                                        Control blocks control the way the script runs in a project.
