This module guides students through creating interactive games and animations using Scratch, a visual programming language. Teachers should prepare to guide students through each project, encouraging experimentation with code. Some lessons require specific resources, such as uploading images, and are not suitable for tablets or iPads. The module covers a range of programming concepts, including controlling movements, creating clones, detecting collisions, and using variables.
