 I just learned how to use Scratch.  I will be student teaching next semester and would love to use Scratch in my classroom.  I don't want to try anything too complicated since I just recently learned how to use it .  Does anyone have any ideas on a simple way I can implement it in the classroom?  Thanks.

There are some suggestions for activities in http://scratched.media.mit.edu/resources/designing-scratch-workshop -- It might give you some ideas.

Good luck, and please do let us know how it goes!

Thanks,

 This semester I am in 2nd grade.  I don't know what specific age group I will be in next semester, but it will most likely be 1st - 3rd.  Thanks!

Hi what age group are you going to be working with.  If you would like I can email some resources to you - still working on them at present but  my email is awilson169@gmail.com.  I also used Scratch with 8/9yr olds last year for my honours project at uni - there is a paper in the resources section which shows what i did and some results.
