Scratch Angle Challenge
We can all draw angles with scratch, but can we add a wee square to a right angle and arc to acute & obtuse angles?
- Check you can draw a line. Try this bit of code, change the x & y options for both go to blocks a few times.
2. Draw a circle, remember this is not a real circle, but if you make a polygon with enough sides it looks like a circle.
Next can you alter the code to draw half a circle. Then close the loop to make a semi-circle?
If you can manage that you might be able to draw some angles.

Scratch Dice
Can you make a scratch dice like this:
you need to animate the rolling, in this example by changing the dice face; randomise the final face; make some noise and change colours for extra fun.
The picture of blocks you need at the top of the page should help.
If you need extra help you can use this Broken Dice as a starter, remix it.
