In this project which was created for me by my nephew who goes by the Scratch name of funkymonga,  the student is introduced to the pen feature in Scratch.  This is a very fun set of blocks and the student will thoroughly enjoy the immense possibilities of using the pen.

First, let the student view and try out the project, then download the project to study the scripts. After that, encourage the student to design a simple pen project of his own.

I have included a few other pen projects as examples.

 

It is great fun!
