3. I can programme commands that control the movement of a sprite
4. I can programme consequences for specific actions

Watch the tutorial to learn how to begin programming using scratch. You will

need to access the website

https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/editor/?tutorial=getStarted

You can either watch the tutorial and stop it at different points to tackle the task

or watch the whole video and then begin the tasks below.

Tasks:

1. Create your own sprite and decorate it
2. Create your own background and change one thing about this
3. Programme your sprite to left and right when using the appropriate keys
4. Programme the sprite to say something once it touches a colour

I have added a helpful hints resources below to also help you.
