This was quite a challenging week as far as keeping the pupils on task went. They found it difficult to concentrate on planning. They were given laptops once we'd seen a rough plan but they weren't as attentive even then. Most of them have chosen aims that fit into the groups that the Scratch Team have written starters for www.scratch.mit.edu (in 'See examples') :
- Pong
- Maze
- Hide and Seek
- Greetings Card
so to structure the session a little more I'm going to take along part of the scripts on paper to give them something to type in then remix. Also, with the help of Richard Austin I've found out how to download Scratch2 projects and copy the sprites out of them into .png files. Therefore I can give the pupils some additional sprites that they've requested, such as bears.
