Lesson Plan Title: Advanced Scratch Programming

Grade Level: 8th grade

Objectives:

1. Define and use advanced programming concepts in Scratch, including custom blocks,
cloning, and broadcast messages.
2. Understand how to use these advanced concepts to create complex and interactive
programs.
3. Develop debugging and troubleshooting skills when working with complex code.
4. Work collaboratively to create and share Scratch projects.

Materials Needed:

 Computers with internet access


 Projector and screen
 Scratch software
 Scratch tutorials and resources

Introduction (10 minutes):

 Review the basics of Scratch programming, including the sprite, the stage, and the
code blocks.
 Introduce the concept of advanced Scratch programming and explain how it can be
used to create more complex and interactive programs.

Direct Instruction (30 minutes):

 Define custom blocks, cloning, and broadcast messages and explain how they can be
used to create more advanced programs.
 Demonstrate how to create and use custom blocks, including how to pass arguments
and variables.
 Show examples of projects that use cloning and broadcast messages, such as
multiplayer games or chat rooms.
 Discuss debugging and troubleshooting strategies, including how to use the Scratch
debugger and how to break down complex code into smaller parts.

Guided Practice (20 minutes):

 Provide the students with a partially completed Scratch project and ask them to work
in pairs to complete the project using advanced Scratch programming concepts.
 Encourage the students to collaborate and communicate effectively to ensure the
project is completed successfully.

Independent Practice (20 minutes):

 Ask the students to work individually or in pairs to create a Scratch project that uses
advanced programming concepts.
 Encourage the students to be creative and think outside the box, but also to be mindful
of best coding practices, such as commenting their code and testing their programs
thoroughly.

Closure (10 minutes):

 Ask the students to share their Scratch projects with the class.
 Encourage the students to explain the advanced programming concepts they used and
how they incorporated them into their project.
 Summarize the main points of the lesson, emphasizing the importance of
collaboration, debugging, and creativity when working with advanced Scratch
programming concepts.
