Intro: A Gentle Introduction to Arduino for Scratch Users
There are lots of people who are very comfortable with the Scratch programming environment but want to try something with Arduino to Blink Lights, Sense Buttons, Run
Servos or whatever. They may find the C programming environment in Arduino IDE - Sketch, a bit too much of a step.
Using Scratch Programs you can make Arduino Flash Lights, Read Buttons, and do many of the things that you can do with the the regular Arduino environment.
So if you like Scratch and Arduino but are not quite ready for C programming (yet), this is something you can try out.
* Arduino UNO
* Some LEDs
* A 560 Ohm resistor for each LED (or a value similar to that)
* A 10k Ohm resistor
* A Pushbutton Switch
* Breadboard for wiring up e.g. (http://goo.gl/1E1iI l)
* Some Wires

Step 2: Flashing LED Experiment
To start we need to wire an LED and Switch to the Arduino (along with some Resistors), as shown in the diagrams below.
We're using the switch in the second experiment and the LED in both the first and second experiments.

Step 3: Scratch Program 1: LED Blinking
Startup S4A (Scratch 4 Arduino) and Enter the Scratch program as Shown.
Compare the C and the Scratch and see if you can figure out what's going on.

Step 4: Scratch Program 2: LED and Button
Now we'll use the button to turn on on the LED when it's pressed.
Add another LED and Resistor as you did previously, but this time connect it to Arduino pin 12.
Write a Scratch Program to Turn One LED ON and the other LED OFF when the switch is pressed. HINT: When the Switch is NOT Pressed the LED state should be
opposite (i.e. ON:OFF become OFF:ON)
