the programmer who helps the driver, thinks about the big picture, and offers suggestions

a set of steps to complete a task

the study of computers and algorithms, and their impact on society

instructions written in code which can then be run by a computer

groups of blocks that are attached to each other in the Code Area and run in a specific order

a programming technique in which two programmers, a driver and a navigator, work together on one problem

when clicked in Scratch, starts all scripts in a program

language which can be understood by a computer

single instructions for a sprite which can be dragged and snapped together

the place that we put our code blocks in Scratch to build scripts that control the program

the belief that one can get better at something through hard work and practice

area to the left which which stores all the blocks

the programmer who controls the actions of the computer

the area in Scratch that displays a finished program when it is being run

the image shown on the stage behind the sprites in Scratch

(also called an array) a place where a computer program can store multiple pieces of data under the same last name. Each item can be retrieved by using it's index number.

instructions for how a program will work in plain language

to increase (add to) a value

something that happens or is done without being able to predict the outcome in advance

to determine the new value that is returned from an expression that uses an operator

information or data that is given to an application, program, or device

something which can be true or false, and is used to decide whether an action happens

a number that represents where a piece of data is located in a list

an operator that evaluates two numeric or text inputs and gives another number as the output result

to generalize from specific details, yet maintain the main idea

an operator that takes booleans as input and evaluates to a boolean result

input that the user gives to an application, program, or device through the user interface

a boolean which is used to decide whether an action happens

a statement in coding that combines values, functions, operators, etc., so they can be evaluated to determine a new value

the current piece of data stored in a variable

to decrease (subtract from) a value

a statement with multiple possible outcomes which depend on a condition

something that predicts new behavior of something by using a model created from rules based on existing data points

used to compare or modify data in order to build expressions that can be evaluated. The types in Scratch include arithmetic, comparison, and boolean

an operator that evaluates two numeric or text inputs and gives boolean (true/false) output results

something that stores data in a program to be accessed or changed later

a statement which must be true or false. They can be used as conditions in programming.
