BLOCKS IN SCRATCHJR
A block is a command that tells a character what to do. When you put blocks
together, you create a script. There are six categories of blocks in ScratchJr.
These categories are as follows:
Looks Blocks Control Blocks
Triggering Blocks
Motion Blocks Sound Blocks End Blocks
TRIGGERING BLOCKS
Triggering blocks start the script and also send messages. These blocks
are yellow.
START ON START ON START ON SEND START START ON MES-
GREEN FLAG TAP BUMP MESSAGE SAGE
MOTION BLOCKS
Motion blocks are blue and make your character (sprite) move. You can
drag and drop them to tell your sprite to go forward, turn around or move in
any direction.
