Scratch

Hello our names are Naimah and Zihana and we are going to tell you about Scratch.  Scratch is a program where you can make your character move, walk or talk. For example, you can make it do a 90 degree turn left or a 90 degree turn right. You can import pictures, backgrounds and people or you can draw them. 

The main idea for scratch is to learn how to program your character. If you want your character to move go to the left top corner and click on control, you drag the word with the green flag or space onto the right hand side. You start the movements by pressing the green flag on the right top hand side or press space.

Our latest project on Scratch is creating our own toy. First of all, we planned our own toy on paper, then drew it on Scratch. We also created a PowerPoint about our toy and how we did it. On the program, we were able to change the background, but it had to fit in with the theme of our characters. After this, we print screened our new toy onto our PowerPoint to show the final result.
