Description:
'Learn to Code with Scratch' prepares your child to begin building cool apps, games, animated stories, quizzes, and a variety of other enjoyable applications. This book teaches your child what a programme is and how it works using Scratch, a comprehensive visual programming language.

This book teaches your child how to connect various code blocks and establish the program's logic by using seven distinct games and applications, including a haunted party, a talking robot, a mystical story, and a humorous quiz game. You will learn how to write and create a programme in Scratch and how to run your programme and save and share it with your loved ones.

This book is divided into nine chapters that cover Scratch basics and advanced programming, why Scratch is good for children, and such topics. Learners can also develop interest in Scratch tools. Here’s what each chapter of this book covers:

Chapter 1 will discuss what is coding and teach you how to code. Coding is step-by-step instructions given to the computer, and this chapter explains how the computer follows these instructions and performs the work.

Chapter 2 will introduce Scratch and take you through how to work with Scratch. Scratch is block-based programming, so it is easy to learn.

Chapter 3 will cover the tools to create a project in Scratch. We will learn about all the tools with the story of the “Talking Robot.”

Chapter 4 will look at blocks of Scratch, and we will also learn how to fly any sprite in Scratch.

Chapter 5 will show you how to move and dance any sprite; it is an interesting project.

Chapter 6 will cover how to paint and switch backdrops in Scratch, how to add sound in Scratch, and how to move any sprite continuously.

Chapter 7 will cover mathematical functions like addition and subtraction.

Chapter 8 is a magic story. It will explore how to hide and seek any sprite, and it will also show how two sprites can talk to each other.

Chapter 9 will teach you how to use pen extension, and it will give a brief overview of the pen extension.
