The Big Picture
What have we done? We have used online coding games on websites such as code.org. We may have also used Scratch Jr.
What are we doing? We are going to get familiar with Scratch, we will use a forever loop to make the sprite walk from one side of the screen to the other
Where are we going? We will make a virtual FishTank and use interactivity
