The students in Ms. Meekins’ 4th Grade class at Greenwood have been studying the land and water that border Virginia. To cover this topic in an interesting way, I had students use this template in Scratch. After clicking on the link, students clicked “See Inside” and “remix.” In order for students to remix, they have to be logged into a Scratch account. Follow these directions for having students create a Scratch account at school. Once logged in, students used blockly style coding to program their helicopter to fly to the states and bodies of water that surround Virginia.
