    CREATING A SCRATCH PROJECT

                     As you know, a Sprite is controlled by a list of instructions known as code or script.
                     We create scratch programs by putting code blocks together. Let us create some

                     projects in Scratch. Programs are written in Scratch to move sprites in x and y
                     coordinates on the stage area.

                     PROJECT 1: MOVING A SPRITE

                     To move a sprite around the stage, we need to learn how to work with Motion

                     blocks. A sprite can be moved a few steps ahead or turned by different angles. Let
                     us now create a project that instructs a sprite to move.

                     Step  1     From the Events block, drag a  when            clicked   block.

                     Step  2       From the Motion block drag a  move            10  steps   block.

                     Step  3     Click on the number 10 and change it to  move               50  steps   (The number
                                 determines how far across the screen you want the sprite to move.)

                     Step  4     Drag  a     turn     15  degrees     block.  The sprite  will  rotate  15 degrees
                                 clockwise. (To change the angle of turn, change the number of degrees
                                 and then click on the block to make the sprite turn.)

                     Step  5     Now, click on move 10 steps and change it to  move                50  steps

                     Step  6     Click the      to run your program.

                               when     clicked
                                move    50  steps

                                turn    15  degrees
                                move    50  steps

                     PROJECT 2: CREATING A SCENE

                     Create the given script and run it by clicking on the Green flag button.

                                                                                     Introduction to Scratch Programming  105
