After teaching students some basics (stage, sprites, costumes, loops, movement, ask/answer, broadcast/receive, variables), I challenged them to create their own projects.
In these videos, twelve Scratch educators share examples of student work, lesson plan ideas, assessment rubrics or other experiences from using Scratch in their classrooms.
By the end of this project students have created an animated biome. I have used this with third grade students for two years with great results each time. Tutorials and handouts included.
RIchmond, VA-metro area teachers have been learning about problem-solving and critical thinking through a number of example Scratch projects from Goochland County Public Schools.
