Scratch Lab 1 Write Up
Name: Olivia Moore
Period: 7
Assignment: Scratch Lab #1
Lab Overview
This lab was based on moving the sprite in basic ways, such as drawing shapes or moving the sprite in the form of a shape. The lab involved moving the sprite around the screen in a square. Next, a hexagon was to be made out of any sprite and making it run smoothly. Finally, we had to make the sprite change its costume at least three times and draw the costume ourselves. The full lab description is found HERE.
My Solution
My solution is to glide the cat sprite over to the bottomright corner, point it to 0 degrees, and glide it to the top right corner. This will continue all the way around the screen until it makes a square.
Questions
1. In scratch, a step is the equivalent to moving a sprite one pixle. So, distance is measured in pixles.
2. The origin in scratch is at the point (0,0), which is loctaed in the middle of the screen.
1. The scratch screen is 480 by 360 pixles.
2. The center of the scratch screen is at the origin which is the point (0,0).
3. The unit of measurement in scratch is a pixle.
4. On scratch, you can have an infinite number of sprites on the screen, but you cannot have more than one stage on the screen at one time because backgrounds cannot overlap.
