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
