    Block Menu: 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.

                          Script:  Script  is  a  collection  of  a  number  of  stacked  blocks.  It  gives stepwise
                        instructions to a Sprite to do something on the stage.

                         Script is actually a program which gives instructions in the form of blocks. A script
                        must have at least two blocks.

                         Backdrop: It is the background of the stage.

                          Tabs: Scratch has mainly three tabs which are described
                        as follows:

                            Code Tab:  It contains  block categories  and  the
                             list  of  blocks  in  a  category.  Some  block  categories
                             are—Motion,  Looks, Sound,  Pen,  Events,  Control,
                             Sensing, Operators, Variables, and My Blocks. All

                             block categories are of different colours. In scratch,
                             each  block performs  a  task in  a  project.  The  blocks
                             connect to each other like a jigsaw puzzle and create
                             scripts.

                            Costumes  Tab:  In  this  tab,  you  can  add  and  make

                             changes  in  the  appearance  of  the  Sprites  and
                             backdrops.
                            Sounds Tab: In this tab, you can add and make changes in the sounds of the

                             Sprites and backdrops.
