Overview

This resource teaches students how to animate a sprite using costumes and sound. Students learn that switching quickly between costumes makes a sprite look like it is moving, and they use this to make a ballerina dance. They use the “next costume,” “forever,” and “wait” blocks to repeat and time the dance, and the “start sound” block to add music. A Dancing Party challenge lets students practice by adding more dancers and music.
