Choose a theatre backdrop.

                            Use            block.


                              Use          block to continuously animate the ballerina.


                              Inside forever block, use        block to switch between the different poses.

                              To control the speed of the dance, you can add a             block inside the loop.



























                   4.   Create a project where the Scratch cat sprite draws a pattern on
                       the screen. The pattern continues to evolve as the cat moves
                       around, and the pen colour changes each time the sprite is
                       clicked.

                         Hint:

                   5.   Design a Scratch project where a spaceship sprite moves up,
                       down, left, and right using arrow keys, and shoots lasers when
                       the spacebar is pressed.
