Text clouds produced using tagcrowd.com. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/211858_sm.png Venn Diagram Sample http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/197359 Responding to question in Forums about how to make an interactive Venn diagram. Everything is draggable. The text blocks change colors depending upon whether they are in the right place. Change the "Should Be Member" variables in each text block to tell it which sets it should be a member of. If you change the size of the circles, change the radius variables accordingly. Please remix to make your own customized quizzes. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/197359_sm.png vs. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/195202 In response to the ScratchDesignStudio challenge re "what can you do with a purple circle and an orange square." Here, a purple orange and an orange integrated circuit recite a poem. from "Moon Landing" by W. H. Auden. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/195202_sm.png Sensor Board Simulator http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/188919 We just got one of the Scratch Boards (now called PicoBoards), and it's great. But we noticed on the forums that people are still confused about how it works. This project simulates the board fairly well, so you can kinda play around with it. You can actually use it to prototype Scratchboard apps to see how they may work. The variables at the top of the screen are similar to the sensor values the board creates. Hold down [H] key and mouseover things to get info on certain parts of the board. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/188919_sm.png Bamboo http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/175098 Simulates those excellent Japanese bamboo watercolor paintings. I put the brush sprite from my old calligraphy project so that you can paint along. You have to be patient and zenlike when using this brush, as you'll see. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/175098_sm.png Scratch-Libs http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/169565 Make your own Scratch-Libs! To play, click on [Go]. To see how create mode works, press the "C" key at the start screen. To create your own, download, change the "Story" costume within the Stage (leaving blanks). Run the project, Press "C" at start screen to enter create mode, and move the word blocks around. Then save and upload. I'll put together a gallery that you can add your Scratch-Libs to. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/169565_sm.png Gobo Mancala http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/168777 MANCALA Play Mancala with Gobo! Click on "Help" to see full directions, but generally you click on one of the six bins closest to you when it is your turn, and they are "sown" counterclockwise around the board. The game is over when one whole side of the board is cleared. The player with the most gems in their "store" (the two ends of the board), PLUS the number of gems on their side of the board, wins. --- Gobo is not a very good player, but in later revs may get a bit smarter :) This includes a lot of widgets collected by widgetfarmer1. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/168777_sm.png Bubble Wand [Test] http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/164710 Testing a bubble wand simulation. Click within the circle of the bubble wand. The position and length of time of your mouse click effects the size and direction of the bubble. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/164710_sm.png Widget - Scratch Music Player http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/161080 Music widget for playing sounds. Hold down the "H" key and move mouse over the buttons to get help for each button. To see how to add/change songs, see the comments in the "Songs" sprite. Inspired by fullmoon's music widget. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/161080_sm.png Dandelion http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/149107 Nothing very complicated, just shake the stalk of the dandelion. Press [space] to reset. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/149107_sm.png gh0st5 r3dux http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/127877 Nine Inch Nails released their last album, Ghosts, under a Creative Commons License*. So, just like you when you post something on the Scratch site, they are basically saying: "copy this and change it however you like, as long as it's clear where it came from." This project simply includes seven samples from the album, which you can play in various combinations to alter the soundscape. Mouseover while pressing up and down arrows to change the volume. Ghosts: Music by Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross, Alan Moulder. Photographs (used for spheres) by Rob Sheridan *Attribution/Non-commercial/Share alike http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/127877_sm.png Test_Matrix100 http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/117305 A set of sprites that provide an array having 100 or less values. Just copy the matrix1-10 sprites to your project, and use these three broadcasts: Dimension a(i,j) : Defines how many rows and columns are in the array (max: i x j=100) value=a(i,j): Sets the global variable "value" to the value in the array at (i,j). a(i,j)=value: Sets the value of the array at (i,j) with "value." http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/117305_sm.png CursorTrailTest http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/109839 Just testing to see how cursor trails look online. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/109839_sm.png Luna http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/106911 Click and move the mouse to skip some stones. Nothing much to do here. Just a chill nightime scene. Maybe someone can think of something to add... http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/106911_sm.png Picture Handles http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/chalkmarrow/104311 Click on picture to show handle. Grab handle to move picture. Space bar changes between circle handle (rotate/scale) and square handle (move). Click picture again to hide handle. This relates to a question in the forums about how to attach a handle to things to allow a user to move them around the screen. http://scratch.mit.edu/static/projects/chalkmarrow/104311_sm.png
