<br>
Over the holidays I started scratching the surface of Scratch, as I will be<br>
teaching it to some students in second term this year.<br>
<br>
Here are some links that Scratch enthusiasts might find useful.<br>

I hope to add some more Scratch projects to my site during Term 1.<br>
<br>
If anyone else has some good activities to share for Scratch, then please<br>
let me know.<br>
<br>
Enjoy,<br>
