Have a look at the different menus (notice the colours) and create the program below:
- blocks are instructions we give the sprite (the red arrow) to perform (do) a task
- we work on Scrips tab (a scrip is a group/set of instructions)
- we run (execute) the program by clicking on the green flag (or the start instruction: when clicked)
- the first 2 blocks are compulsory (obligatory) in each program (use your proper name and your own class)
- the program stops because it has an end instruction that makes the program finish its task
- now create the program
- when finished click on the white page button and select Export summary... and save (download) it as html document (untitled.html) to Descargas.
- go to Descargas and rename the file as initial.html (if you want to see your document, double click on it to check that it works).
- now go to your Classroom/ClassWork (trabajo de clase)/Unit 1/SnapInitial and Add the file (initial.html). Don't try to open the file as Classroom will open your html file from Google docs and it doesn't work. Don't worry about it.
Here you have the program running from Snap
