Y4 Scratch: How do I improve my Scratch game?

  • Open Scratch page, click file – upload from my computer – find your file
  • Use catch up cards and each other, but try to think for yourself first –  can you work it out?

So far we have done…

Use catch up cards if you need to do the following steps:

  • CAT
    • When left arrow pressed, turn left 15 degrees
    • When right arrow pressed, turn right 15 degrees
    • Forever move forward
    • Forever change costume – walking
  • BACKGROUND
    • Draw maze walls one colour
    • Draw start and finish places (could be text or picture)

Next steps

  • if cat hits the wall – stop (put this in the moving block)
  • make a coin sprite
    • show at the beginning
    • hide when sprite touches (forever checking)
    • make a variable called “score” (data blocks)
    • add one to score when sprite touches coin
  • Add another maze to the backgrounds
    • Get it to change background when you finish the maze
