Essential Question: How can I use collision detection to create a maze?

Mastery Objectives:

• Learn how to design sprites to detect collision.

• Learn how to navigate a sprite using arrow keys on the keyboard.

• Learn how to design a loop.

Days on Project: 2-3

Directions: Recreate the old video arcade game Pac Man by using scratch. You will need a sprite and a stage. The program doesn't necessarily have to be Pac Man but should include a sprite that chases and eats other sprites while moving through a maze using the arrow keys on the keyboard.
