Useful Links

After this workshop, you should have the confidence to answer the following questions. Just think about them, no need to write anything down.

Would you say Scratch's sprites are the equivalent of Java's classes?
What is the difference between the stage and sprites?
How do you add a sprite?
How can you add a costume to your sprite?
(Using Scratch loops, how can you implement the equivalent of a Java for loop? Of a Java while loop?) We'll go over this again next time.
How can you make it that a sprite moves whenever it is touched by the mouse pointer, but when the user moves the mouse somewhere else, it doesn't move?
What does it mean when a variable is private? Global?
Why can‘t you create cloud variables (yet)?
