Scratch Course - Chapter 4

a week. uq ela last week were told that we would begin with the arid theme of variables, but honestly as the last two classes were Durillo I decided to dedicate this fourth part of the course to a more relaxed theme. The main theme this week are the character animations.

The character animation in Scratch is done by changing the costume of the sprites (objects). There are objects that if we open Scratch the tab "Costumes" contain more than one sprite object. Simply alternating the sprites get a sense of animation. In the video illustrates this with alternating two pictures of me. I guess the kids will understand well.

then explain how to change the background of our applications, we are a bit fed up that screen as white. First I teach them over the paint tool on the stage. You should work with her because almost all kids love to draw. My daughter is what he entertains. Take this opportunity to recommend you the program Tuxpaint is a drawing program for children that runs on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.

Once seen as painting a background is to use one of the predesigned. Then we

another funny thing, make the kitty say or think that things with blocks and think. In Scratch can do things the characters say the typical snacks of the comic. Well that's what we teach them to do. With that and the funds will have entertainment while making their own comics.

Finally, know that I like to finish with a arreĆ³n lessons introducing a more complex issue, we discussed the questions and answers. In Scratch the method of entering information is to have a character ask us. INPUT is the equivalent of BASIC we learned.

This concept will help me next week, and all more relaxed, to introduce the variables.

Indeed, in the middle of next week, be aware that I have prepared a surprise for children to play and see what kind of programs that will do.

The video, as always, you look at it first.
