Chapter Profile

                                              block is used to set the  rotation  style of a          3 left-right
                      sprite. The options to choose from are left-right, don't rotation                  don‘t rotation

                      and all round.                                                                     all round

                  Looks Blocks


                  The blocks in purple colour are Looks blocks. They control how a Sprite
                  appears on stage.

                       use the                        block to add a speech bubble to the Sprite

                      for the given time in seconds.

                                   block adds a speech bubble to the Sprite with the given text. The speech
                      bubble will continue to appear until another speech or thought block is activated, or the

                      stop button is pressed.

                                                  adds a thought bubble to the Sprite with the

                      given text, for the given time in seconds.

                                     shows a thought bubble with the given text. The bubble will

                      continue to appear until another speech or thought block is activated,
                      or the Stop button is pressed.

                              and         shows and hides the Sprite on the stage.


                                                  changes the Sprite according to

                      the selected effect. The seven effects are: color, fisheye,

                      whirl, pixelate, mosaic, brightness and ghost.

                                      block will reset any graphical effects on the
                      sprite. They will be reset  to their default value zero.

                  Sound Blocks

                  Sound blocks are in pink colour. They control sound functions. We can add music to our
                  Scratch project by using Sound blocks. You can even record your voice and save it. You can

                  play it with a sprite.

                                           block plays a sound without pausing the script.

                      The sound options are Meow and record.

                                                block plays the sound by pausing the script until the sound has

                      finished playing. The sound options are “Meow” and record.
