This document provides instructions for a Scratch tutorial lesson. The lesson teaches students how to use basic Scratch commands to control a sprite and test simple scripts. It guides students through creating a motion square script using pen down, motion, and repeat blocks, then modifying the sprite's looks using look blocks to change costume, say, and adjust size. The homework is to explore backgrounds and sprites in Scratch before the next lesson.

1. Lesson One
The basics
(Recap on tools and commands)

2. Lesson Objectives

instructions given to you.
There will be there key symbols used to remind
you of what steps you should be taking.
Activity Checklist – follow these instructions
step by step
