Interactive whirl: starfish


This is the image of the starfish. When the green flag is clicked you move the mouse around the computer screen and the starfish will start to whirl around the computer screen. This continues to happen when you move your mouse around the computer screen. You can stop it by pressing the stop button and it should freeze and go back to how it started.

Follow the mouse: Crab


This is the image of the crab. When the green flag is pressed you move the mouse a

round and the crab follows it. This was simple we followed the wa the tutorial was set out and that made it more simple. The crab continouesly moves around the computer until the stop button is pressed. There were no problems encountered with this tutorial.

Animate it: Butterfly


This is how our butterfly works.

When you press the green flag it flaps it wings. This was a very simple tutuorial that we chose. It didnt take long but we did use alot of time cutting and pasting items from the forever loop.

Today sam and i finalised every scratch challange we did.

We did the following:

Animatie it: butterfly
Follow the mouse: Crab
Interactive whirl: starfish
Say something: monkey
Change colour: Zebra
MOving animation: Dragon
Dance twist: Dancer
Key moves: Duck
Glide: green rhino
Surprise button: Drum

I did the first 5 and sam did the last 5. I had many difficulties as to figuring out how everything worked. I was constantly struggling with putting different components in the forever loop. We spent 3 lessons doing the following and we didnt have enough time to work on our blog so time management was another problem for us.

I will post images of the tutorials we did on seperate blogs.
