6 PM – Scratch Level 1 – Allison

Today we:

1. Reviewed coordinates
2. Started the Animal Crossing project
3. Learned how to make sprites move left and right while switching costumes
4. Coded a Mouse sprite to say hello when it reaches the right border
5. Coded another Mouse sprite to broadcast a message when it reaches the left border
6. Coded the background to listen to that message and play music

Homework:

1. Create a Banner sprite that has the text “Finish!” in its costume.
   1. Code it to hide when the game starts.
2. Add a Bat sprite.
   1. Code the Bat sprite to start at the middle of the bottom edge when the game starts. Code it to forever go up while switching costumes.
   2. When this Bat sprite reaches the top border, code it to play the sound pop.
3. Add another Bat sprite.
   1. Code it to start at the middle of the top edge when the game starts. Code it forever go down while switching costumes.
   2. When this Bat sprite reaches the bottom border, code the Banner sprite to show up.
4. Hint: if you don’t know what coordinates to use for the bolded and underlined text, look at your coordinate grid paper (click here to see a picture)
