FAQ
What is Scratch and how is it used in Project 4?
Scratch is a free visual block-based programming language where students snap together colour-coded command blocks (Motion, Looks, Sound, Events, Control) to create animations and interactive games without typing complex syntax.
What are ‘sprites’ and ‘backdrops’ in Scratch?
Sprites are the characters or objects that perform actions on the stage, while backdrops are the background scenes of the stage where the animation or game takes place.
