                              Your Aim

                              to learn about:

                                     Sprite’s Direction             Drawing a Square
                                      Drawing a Polygon               Drawing a Circle and Semicircle

                                       Drawing Patterns



                  Scratch can be used to create various shapes. In this chapter, you will learn how to
                  create shapes using the Pen block. Before drawing shapes, let us understand the
                  movements of the Sprite on the stage.


                      SPRITE’S DIRECTION

                  You can change the direction of the Sprite by using the Turn block under the
                  Motion blocks menu. The  turn            15  degrees  block will turn the Sprite in clockwise

                  direction by the specified number of degrees. The  turn                15  degrees   block will turn

                  the Sprite in anti-clockwise direction by the specified number of degrees.
                  The value of the degree specified in the Turn block can be changed according to

                  our requirement.
