Scratch Programming Components
- Sprite: A visual object (image or text) in Scratch that executes actions based on scripts.
- Stage: The background of the Scratch project, initially a white canvas with a default cat sprite.
- Motion: Controls sprite movement on the stage.
- Looks: Changes sprite appearance (costumes), backdrop, and prompts or speech.
- Sound: Plays music, adjusts volume, handles audio input.
- Pen: Enables drawing on the stage, controlling color and line thickness.
- Data: Creates variables and lists to store and manage information.
- Events: Triggers actions based on specific events, like when a message appears.
- Control: Manages program flow, including loops, waits, and sprite cloning.
- Sensing: Enables sprites to react to other sprites or external actions.
- Operators: Used for comparisons (equal to, less than, greater than), and simultaneous actions.
- Script: A set of instructions that tells a sprite what to do.
