Our first day at Scratch Camp ! Each day you will see new information here on this blog. It should help remind you what we do and save on taking lots of notes. That way we can have more FUN !
So what are we going to do ?
What is Scratch?
Scratch is a creative online learning community where you can create stories, games & animations and share these with others all around the world
Where can I find Scratch?

Sprites & Code Blocks
What can we do to a sprite? Let's try them out, we can:
- Make a sprite larger
- Shrink a sprite
- Move a sprite
- Delete a sprite
- Hide a sprite
- Copy/duplicate a sprite
- Get a new sprite
Using the Code blocks there is lots we can do.....
We'll start by creating a new project.
Check out the Libraries
There are many different sprites available to use in your project in the library. There's even a library for the stage/backdrop.
Lets Go Practice
What can we get a Sprite to do - we can all take a little time to experiment now.
What did we do today?
Everyone can take a turn, if they want, to tell us a little about what they did today.
Pixels
This will be good to know over the next few days as we do more with Scratch. You don't need to learn it off, we'll soon discover it when we use Scratch.
