Art Geometry with scratch

Drawing a square starter

Same as for the drawing with code.org, student will build an intuitive understanding of angles and geometry when creating drawing programs. They can remix the Drawing Challenge Starter Code to draw a square.

Coding concepts: Sequential, repeating events, Pen tool

Student Project

Additional coding concepts: Creating and defining your own blocks, Repetition with input

Additional resource: (87) Repeat in Scratch - YouTube

Dynamic Art (Scratch)

Students can create shapes in the graphics editor and then explore different visual effects. Or they can move the shape around the screen, stamping it to create patterns. The possibilities are endless.

Creative Computing has some guided inquiries to get students started as does Math Surprise
