This is a reasonably simple introduction tutorial to become familiar with Scratch programming.
This is another Scratch tutorial for making a chasing game in Scratch, involving broadcasting, if statements, use of variables for a scoring system, extension for adding a power-up to the game.
This task covers basic Scratch programs and broadcasting, as well as challenge tasks to do calculations in Scratch.
This video covers tasks to get you familiar with variables and how to use them in Scratch.
This video covers how we make decisions in programs, using if and if-else statements.
This video explains how to repeat instructions in Scratch and challenges you to try some tasks where repetition is required to solve them (in a more efficient way).
This video looks at using lists in Scratch and a few tasks to help us learn more about them!
This final video of the scratch activity pack looks at how to create your own blocks or functions in Scratch and why they are so powerful!
