Computing

LO- To understand how to programme using scratch

Success criteria

  1. I can draw a background using blocks to make a maze.
  2. I can select and change a character (sprite).
  3. I can program commands that control the movement of a sprite.
  4. I can program consequences for specific actions.

 

Click the link below (or on the tab on the left 'Scratch' to access the game and

play this for a short time to understand this. The aim of the game is to reach the green exit without touching the obstacle.

https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/57805794/

Once you have played this consider the questions:

  • How does the user make the character move?
  • What happens if a red obstacle is touched?
  • What happens when the green exit is reached?

 

Now watch my tutorial to understand how to make a maze game. You can watch the tutorial the whole way through or pause when suggested and work alongside the video. I have added the coding used for the game as a resource to download

if you need some extra help.
