Part of Lesson Plan: Creating an Interactive Field of Sprites in Scratch
Activity Overview / Details
As a follow-up to the rotation block demonstrated in the demo/modeling activity, students should create the "color" and "gravity" experiments demonstrated in the video. The BYOB/Scratch files are downloadable in this lesson.
As a follow-up, have students create an "experiment" which combines the behaviors of the interactions depicted in the previous Scratch projects.
