Computer science Lesson Plan
Class: 7th - Lesson:8 Animation

Purpose: Students should learn the usage of programming (Motion, Looks, Basic events, Variables, Operators, Custom events)and also develop their own project. Using simple sequences and loops to create animations . .

No. of Classes

One or two classes (Teacher's decision).

Materials Required

Scratch 3.0.

Curriculum Content
  • 6.3)Costumes
  • 6.4)Motions
  • 6.5)Looks (6 std)
  • 2.6)Variables
  • 2.3)Control

    • Prior knowledge

    Good knowledge about Sprites, Backdrops, Costumes, Variables, Operators, Conditional statements and Loops, events, sensing etc.. in scratch.

    Exercises

    Exercise:1


  • Make an animation movie with your own imagination (refer dengu.avi in the same folder for sample).

    • Solutions


  • Link to copy solution program for exercise-1.

    • Teacher's Instruction
    1. Teachers should recall about Variables, Operators, lists, broadcasts,etc...
    2. Teachers should motivate Students to write an algorithm(Documentation) to create a story.
    3. Teachers should teach how to make animations and the usage of GIF files in creating animations.
    4. Scratch will create more costumes when we upload the GIF files, and need to teach the students before starting this lesson.
