What Is Block-Based Coding?
Block-based coding involves a drag-and-drop learning environment, letting designers use coding instructions or “blocks” to construct animated stories and games.
What Are “Blocks”?
- Motion Blocks: Tell sprites how to move and turn
- Looks Blocks: Alter a sprite's appearance
- Sound Blocks: Add sound to a story or game
- Event Blocks: Trigger actions when something happens
- Control Blocks: Create loops, conditions, and waits
