Scratch Quiz for Grade 3: Test Your Drag-and-Drop Programming Skills

🚀 Quick Study Guide

• ✨ Scratch is a visual programming language where you use colorful blocks to create animations, stories, and games.
• 👆 "Drag-and-Drop" means you click on a block, drag it to the scripting area, and snap it together with other blocks, just like LEGOs!
• 🐱‍👤 Sprites are the characters or objects in Scratch that you can program. Think of them as your actors!
• 📜 Scripts are a sequence of blocks that tell a sprite exactly what to do. It's like a recipe for your sprite!
• 🔔 Events are special blocks that start a script, such as "when green flag clicked" or "when space key pressed."
• 🚶‍♀️ Motion blocks help your sprites move around the stage (e.g., move 10 steps, turn 15 degrees).
• 👀 Looks blocks change how a sprite appears (e.g., say "Hello!", switch costume, change size).
