Lesson 3 Improving a game
Learners apply the concept of variables to enhance an existing game in Scratch. They predict the outcome of changing the same change score block in different parts of a program, then they test their predictions in Scratch. Learners also experiment with using different values in variables, and with using a variable elsewhere in a program. Finally, they add comments to their project to explain how they have met the objectives of the lesson.
