	Story This is how to make an animated story. You might also like to create an animation set to a poem. Start Scratch.
	Delete the cat sprite.
	Create a stage background for your story. Import one from the web or draw one or use one of the existing stage background already in Scratch.
	Choose new sprite from file or create your own.
	Click on to ‘Costumes’, then locate an appropriate sprite (or draw one yourself) Rename your sprite - give it an appropriate name! Position the sprite on the stage, and resize it if you need to.
	Choose some music for your story (if appropriate). First, click on the ‘stage’…
	…now click ‘sounds’ Click ‘import’ …then select an appropriate sound. (or locate your own sound…)
	.. now click in "Script".
	add the block.
	Import another sprite. I have imported ‘boy2’ from the ‘people’ folder. Make sure you rename each sprite to something meaningful!
	The characters are now going to talk to each other.
	Click on to the sprite you want to make talk. Add code blocks as shown… Change the ‘secs’ (seconds) time as appropriate.
	Now click on to the character who will respond. Add the blocks as shown. Now we don’t want the character to respond straightaway, so make sure you include a ‘wait’ block too.
	You should then be able to click back on to the ghost and add more blocks like this…
	Clicking back on to Nick… You can also add the ‘think’ blocks too… check it out!

Now experiment with different backgrounds and sprites.

It will help if you write out each line of your story first!
