Introducing the scratch interface

Year 9 ICT Autumn Term 2007

What is Scratch?

• Scratch is a software application that allows us

to make simple programmes for animating objects on the screen.

your programme

What you will learn:

National Curriculum levels:

• use sequences of instructions to control devices and

achieve specific outcomes

• use ICT systems to control events in a predetermined

manner

• create sequences of instructions to control events, and

understand the need to be precise when framing and sequencing instructions

• develop, try out and refine sequences of instructions to

monitor, measure and control events, and show

efficiency in framing these instructions
