Diseño de juego Scratch 1 para principiantes: juego de carreras

****This class is designed for BEGINNER level Scratch coders.****
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS IF YOU HAVE TAKEN SEMESTER 2. This lesson is covered in my Semester 2 class and your child will be repeating if they have already completed semester 2 with me.

My style of teaching is very patient, interactive, and engaging. Each student will be able to share and express themselves as they feel comfortable. Each lesson will leave them excited to create projects using the coding knowledge they acquired in class. 

This is a ‘Beginners’ game. We will build a two-player racing game in Scratch.

List of Scratch skills covered:
-Event handling (using the ‘key pressed?’ block)
-Creating the smooth movement of a sprite
-Looping
-Boolean Logic (the ‘not’ block)
-Coordinating the actions of multiple sprites using the ‘broadcast’ and ‘when I receive’ blocks
-Creating sensors using the ‘touching’ and ‘touching color’ blocks
-Conditional statements

Lesson 1: Get the Starter Project. Upload the starter project to your Scratch account.
Objectives:
-Turn the blue car 15 degrees to the right when the 'right arrow' key is pressed.
-Turn the blue car 15 degrees to the left when the 'left arrow' key is pressed.
-Move the blue car 10 steps forward when the 'up arrow' key is pressed.
-Keep on moving the blue car forward when the 'up arrow' key is pressed, until the 'up arrow' key is no longer pressed.
-Keep on turning the blue car to the right when the 'right arrow' key is pressed, until the 'right arrow' key is no longer pressed.
-Keep on turning the blue car to the left when the 'left arrow' key is pressed, until the 'left arrow' key is no longer pressed.

Lesson 2: Program a Winning Condition
Objectives:
-Program the green car to move as well.
-Make sure the cars stay on the track by taking them back to their starting position whenever they get off the track.
-Switch to the blue car's winning announcement when the blue car gets to the 'Finish Line'.
-Switch to the green car's winning announcement when the green car gets to the 'Finish Line'.
-Hide the cars and the 'Finish Line' when the backdrop switches to a winning announcement.
