Programming Basic instructions that tell a computer to do something Many different languages Scripted Languages: C, Java, Ruby, Python Block programming: Scratch, Hour of Code All similar concepts Fun and rewarding!
Scratch Online free programming site created by MIT to help people learn programming basics Available in 40+ languages Used in 150+ countries https://scratch.mit.edu/
Sprite Editor Sprite Preview Sprite Selection and Creation Tool Box
Challenges Make a sprite move; By itself (autonomous) With keyboard input (teleoperated) When it touches another Sprite Think about adding a costume change Change Stages (backgrounds) When sprite reaches end of screen Put a unique sprite on each background Use a sensing block to ask a question Try and incorporate the answer into your program
