This unit focuses on sprites and behaviors while enforcing the concept of events. Learning in this unit will allow students to:

• Describe the importance of the user in the design process.
• Identify sprites in a running computer program.
• Create an animation using sprites, and behaviors.
• Create new sprites and assign them costumes and behaviors.
• Create an interactive animation using events.
• Develop programs that respond to timed events.
• Develop programs that respond to user input.

The content of this unit can be taught by implementing the standalone unit resources and reinforced by embedding the cross curricular activity.
