COMBINING THE ELEMENTS
The different elements of Scratch – blocks, sprites, Stage backdrops, sounds, and costumes – can
be combined together to create animations and stories. A Story is a collection of different scenes
displayed in a sequence that carries the theme of the story further. A Scene is one of several images
that are part of a sequence. We have learned to create separate projects and animations in Scratch
till now. Let us now create a story by combining all the elements.
The requirements to create a story are:
1. Selection of a storyline.
2. Selection of suitable sprites as characters in the story.
3. Setting the appropriate background for the Stage.
4. Positioning the sprites at the required positions.
5. Creating scripts to enable interaction between the sprites, and create animation.
