Scratch 3.0 for Teachers: Coding Games & Lesson Plans

Learn sequential programming in Scratch 3.0 by chaining events, say blocks, and sensing. Build interactive dialogues with the cat using join to combine greetings and names.

Build a helicopter game in Scratch 3.0 using if statements, guiding a helicopter from yellow to blue buildings while avoiding clouds, with up arrow and right arrow input.

Build a racing car game in scratch 3.0 using if statements and keyboard controls, implementing color collision, exit and start points, and win/lose conditions.

Explore Scratch 3.0 loops to build a ghost effect animation using when flag clicked and repeat blocks, changing the ghost effect by five with timed waits, duplicating blocks.

Develop a scary shark game in Scratch 3.0 by building a new project, animating a shark and fish, implementing chase, score increases, and life loss with broadcasts.

Add a toxic face to the scary shark game, manage lives and score, and trigger a game over broadcast while adjusting the shark size when faces are eaten or poisoned.

Learn to build a crossing the road game in Scratch 3 using the crab and vehicles, with a car speed variable, random delays, and lives logic.

Learn to build a crab crossing the road game in Scratch 3 using variables for level, car speed, and lives, with show, forever, and color checks to increase difficulty.

Teach geometry and informatics in Scratch 3.0 by building a witch game where sprites move toward a line until two house distances are equal, using variables and distance calculations.

Build a quadratic equation solver in Scratch by inputting a, b, c, computing the discriminant delta, and deriving x1 and x2 using the quadratic formula.

Develop a Scratch 3.0 game where you move the player with arrow keys to collect all garbage inside a beam, then broadcast a win and show a victory screen.

Learn to build the snake arcade game in Scratch 3.0 by steering with arrow keys, eating apples to grow longer, and avoiding self-collision or edge hits.

Learn to build the head of the snake game in Scratch 3.0, initialize the score when flag clicked, and drive movement with a forever loop and arrow key controls.

Scratch 3.0: the body sprite follows the head, uses costumes, creates clones to form a growing trail with random directions and score-based wait times that lengthen as apples are eaten.

Code the apple in a Scratch 3.0 snake game using a forever loop to detect touches, increase the score, and place the apple at a random x and y.

Learn to implement game over in Scratch 3.0 for the snake game by detecting self-collision or wall hits, broadcasting game over, and stopping the project.
