Lesson 3
Set it up
In this lesson, students will initialize their app to ensure that the layout looks the same each time it is run. They will compare the role of different commands in Scratch, before using commands to set the size and location of their sprites. Students will then compare physical buttons to sprites. Finally, they will use additional commands to make their buttons respond to user input.
