Scratch for 8-12 year olds: You Can Code and Draw in Scratch
This book contains twenty four short projects in eBook or spiral-bound print format for children 8 - 12 years. They are grouped into pairs by colour to cover 12 Sessions. Each is a draw and code assignment in Scratch to foster creative thinking with graphical skills. Scratch +Ready-Steady-Code connects essential coding concepts with children’s imaginations for them to create games, animations and stories almost without limitations. Seamus O’Neill’s Ready-Steady-Code is all about the extra magic, creativity and fun that vector sprites and fine-line grids bring to Scratch. More than 85% of Scratch sprites are vectors. Only 15% are bitmaps. Vector sprites are graphical drawings consisting of lines and shapes with colour fills. Bitmaps consist of difficult pixels. Vectors are much more flexible and easier to use. They can be ungrouped into their basic shapes which you can easily manipulate, re-colour and re-shape into new sprites or new costumes. You can also draw your own sprites (when the sprite you need is not available in the library). The term ‘paint’ is used for bitmaps but ‘draw’ is more suitable for vectors. This book shows children how to turn a bug into a spider, a butterfly into a bee, a skating penguin into a musician and much more. The vector toolbox is shown down along the right hand side when you open the Paint Editor in Vector Mode. This is because the cat sprite is a vector image. If you’re working on a bitmap image, you find the bitmap tools down along the left side. SCRATCH +Ready-Steady-Code empowers the adults to take up the challenge that comes with being a parent, mentor or educator of children in this age of technology. The cards address the adult’s confidence and competence while also facilitating children to learn coding and graphical drawing at the same time. OK! Are you Ready? Are you Steady? Let’s Code!
SCRATCH Projects for 8-9 year olds: Scratch Short and Easy with Ready-Steady-Code
Seamus O’Neill’s Ready-Steady-Code fine-line vector grids have been included in Scratch 2.0 and 3.0 by its developers at MIT (Boston). The projects on cards 16-20 of this card-set in particular, bring out the magic of the grids. The cards are also available spiral-bound as free-standing and flip-over for hands-free collaborative project-based computer activities by children. There are twenty cards for children 8 - 9 years, grouped into pairs by colour to cover 10 Lessons. Each card is a short coding assignment in Scratch to foster Computational Thinking in maths and numeracy. Scratch +Ready-Steady-Code (cards 16-20) when used in this way, helps children learn essential coding concepts while giving them scope for creative thinking. The code (or script) in each assignment is short and designed to fit within a lesson time slot. Each script is compatible with a program of study for children between the ages of 8 and 9. Each card matches a learning objective within the general Math curriculum framework of Number, Logical Reasoning, Spatial Awareness, Shape, Measurement and Data. SCRATCH +Ready-Steady-Code empowers the teacher to take up the challenge that comes with being an educator of children in this age of technology. The cards address teacher confidence and competence while facilitating children coding and doing their maths at the same time. OK! Are you Ready? Are you Steady? Let’s Code!
Scratch Projects for 11-12 year olds: Scratch Short and Easy with Ready-Steady-Code
Seamus O’Neill’s Ready-Steady-Code fine-line vector grids have been included in Scratch by its makers at MIT (Boston). This set of assignment cards include many projects (e.g. card 7) that bring out the magic of the grids. The cards are also available spiral-bound as free-standing and flip-over for hands-free collaborative project-based computer activities by children. There are twenty four cards for children 11 - 12 years, grouped into pairs by colour to cover 12 Lessons. Each card is a short coding assignment in Scratch to foster Computational Thinking in maths and numeracy. Scratch+Ready-Steady-Code helps children learn essential coding concepts while giving them great scope for creative thinking. The code (or script) in each assignment is short and designed to fit within a lesson time slot. Each script is compatible with a program of study for children between the ages of 11 and 12. Each card matches a learning objective within the general Math curriculum framework of Number, Logical Reasoning, Spatial Awareness, Shape, Measurement and Data. SCRATCH +Ready-Steady-Code empowers the teacher to take up the challenge that comes with being an educator of children in this age of technology.
