I don’t know how to
control an object in
Scratch
I can name one command to
control an object within
Scratch

I can list different commands

needed to control an object
within Scratch (i.e. move it
back and forth)

I can sequence different

types of commands to create
and control an animation

I can independently create an

animation, using iteration to
make my program more
efficient . I will develop it
further by adding elements such
as sound
