3 lessons//1 Week
Week 1Lesson 1Setup: Basic Design & Movement FunctionsStarting with the basic setup of their game avatar, students will design a Minecraft character and customize it to their liking by adding costumes, accessories and different colors. Once their avatar is established, they will create the different frames needed to show their character’s animated movements. Using a solid level ground in their established world, students will proceed to code the avatar’s motions to move in multiple directions, such as walking left to right and jumping up and down.Lesson 2Combat Action: Attacking & EffectsStudents will learn how to make their game avatar interact with the setting, fight against enemies and break various objects. They will create attack frames to show their avatars striking left and right, where they will be able to hit an enemy or object with a sword and show the visible effects of the interaction. Students will understand how to code the game mechanics of motion through constructing actions and their resulting outcomes.Lesson 3Game Objectives: Collectable Prizes & Endgame CutscenesStudents will learn how to incorporate a main objective or goal into their closed level game play. They will build upon the avatar’s ability to interact with enemies, by creating a collectable item that will be dropped once their opponents are defeated. The avatar can collect and accumulate these items until it fulfills the game’s objective. Upon completion, this will trigger a coded condition causing the level to end and show a congratulatory cutscene for accomplishing the main goal.
Students will learn how to program basic operations in video games and understand how sophisticated animation makes interactive media more immersive. Students will be able to create their outlines, scripts, and characters and begin the process of storyboarding complete animation sequences in future projects.

Hardware: Students will need two devices. One will be used to view the class on Outschool (can be a phone) and the other device will be needed to code. The second device must have a keyboard. Software: Scratch (in browser with account or free desktop download) Students are encouraged to create a Scratch browser account (https://scratch.mit.edu) beforehand or download the desktop version and get comfortable with locating and opening the program to get ready for the first class. It is recommended that students create a folder for saving projects onto their computers or thumbdrives for use as a "backup" instead of saving projects online only.
