Today in class we will create a Scratch program that tells a funny story. We will be using the following new blocks:
- "ask and wait" (in Sensing), with its partner "answer"
- "set (variable) to (value)" (in Data)
- "insert (value) at (location)" (in List)
- "join (hello, world)" (in Operators)
If we have time, we will also learn how to create out own blocks in "More Blocks"
To see my example, go to:

Just for Mme Annie's Class:
If you are in Mme Annie's class (or are in grade 7), this completed program, titled "Silly Stories" must be handed in for marking (to be included as part of your grade for report cards).
Program requirements:
- asks user for at least 3 animals (and store them in a List)
- asks user for one place (and store it in a Variable)
- asks user for one action (and store it in a Variable)
- tells the story using the words collected (using the Join block within "Say for X seconds")
- properly initializes variables and lists so the program may run again
- have Instructions and Notes and Credits completed on the project page
- Marks for creativity, originality and neatness of the project will also assigned
- Don't forget to check the grammar in your work: words spelled correctly, proper capitalization, etc.
- When your program is completed and you want it to be marked, please put "This project is complete" in the "Notes and Credits" section of the Project Page.
How to hand in your program:
- Share your program on Scratch (on-line version)
- Make sure you have created a Studio called "Acadecap?? for Mme Sarah" (replace the ?? with your initials). Invite me (BlueHeron) as a curator to the gallery.
- From the "My Stuff" page (click on folder in upper right), use the "Add To" button to put it in your gallery.
- Don't forget to add "This project is complete" to project notes so I know you are actually finished!
- Program is due on Wednesday November 13, 2013, at 9:00 am. (Note their is no Computer Science class next week due to the PD day).
