Here are some directions on sample projects that show how to use different blocks in games.
  • Original Author: Ann Nicholson

  • Content Types: Handout, Sample Scratch Project
  • Curricular Areas: Computer Science, Teacher Education, Technology

This resource contains a PDF handout that explains several blocks that can be used in creating games: variables, lists, operators, control, sensing, etc. Along with a brief explanation of the various blocks is a link to a sample project that uses the blocks listed. I  created this handout to use with adults at a workshop, but it can also be used with students.
