The set of instructions that is used to program in Scratch is called a script. It is a stack or collection of blocks that connect with one another. The blocks of instructions are nicely ordered to perform a specific task, as they determine to interact sprites.

she describes the script structure and script area

Structure of Scratch Script:

  • Starting a script such as a click the green flag to start.
  • Add to the end of a script.
  • Ending of a script
  • Essential to fit inside other blocks.
  • Contain other blocks.

Script Area:

Script area is present on the right side of the programming palette, here the scripts are assembled. From the programming palette or block palette, blocks are dragged to the script area to store and execute in a project. Or you can stack them together to create a script.

INTRODUCTION TO SCRATCH PROGRAMMING

The set of instructions that is used to program in Scratch is called a script. It is a stack or collection of blocks that connect with one another. The blocks of instructions are nicely ordered to perform a specific task, as they determine to interact sprites.

Structure of Scratch Script:

  • Starting a script such as a click the green flag to start.
  • Add to the end of a script.
  • Ending of a script
  • Essential to fit inside other blocks.
  • Contain other blocks.

Script Area:

Script area is present on the right side of the programming palette, here the scripts are assembled. From the programming palette or block palette, blocks are dragged to the script area to store and execute in a project. Or you can stack them together to create a script. When you right-click on the script area you will get the following options: Undo, Redo, Clean up blocks, Add comments, and Delete blocks.

 

EVALUATION:    1. Define Football

  1. List the skills in Football
  2. Enumerate three safety rules in Football
  3. Define the term ‘script’
  4. Describe
  5. the script structure
  6. the script area

CLASS ACTIVITY: Pupils in small groups demonstrate the skills involved in football

CLASSWORK: As in evaluation
