'''Time to complete this part: about 15 minutes'''
: ''At the beginning of the lesson we remind students what they were supposed to prepare between classes. We invite a volunteer to present his/her solution. We ask if anyone had a different way of finding a solution. We discuss the solutions (praising correct solutions to individual tasks).''
: ''If there was no homework, we start by repeating key issues from the previous module. We also ask if students have any doubts regarding their own projects. If anyone wants to show something he/she is proud of, we let him/her do it.''
We remind students that during the previous class we learned how to change the appearance of the sprite, and animated it by changing its costume.
 
'''We ask the following question:'''
What do we already have and what do we lack to be able to create the game?
: ''Students should be able to notice that they are missing the Mouse character. We discuss what the Mouse is to be. ''
 
: ''If necessary, we prompt the students that the Mouse should be a sprite just as the Kitten already visible on the screen. ''
 
'''Task: '''
We ask that students to find the option to insert a new sprite, and then to add it by selecting the Mouse from among the available ready characters. If necessary, we suggest (prompt the students) that animals figures are available in the Animals category and demonstrate how to add the sprite.
 
 
We explain to the students that we now have two sprites that will be the characters in our game. We note that they have rather unfriendly names (Sprite1, Mouse1), which can interfere and cause confusion if we want to control them.
'''We ask the following question: '''
How can we change the names of our sprites to Kitten and Mouse, respectively?
 
''Students should note that they can change the name of the sprite in the settings after selecting the'' '''i''' ''symbol by the sprite icon at the bottom of the screen (under the stage).''
 
 
 
'''Task: '''
We ask students to change the names of the sprites. We note that whenever we want to make an operation for a given sprite (change its appearance, add script commands), we should click on its character in the sprite and stage management area at the bottom left side of the screen.
We note that the Mouse sprite is almost as big as the Kitten sprite.
 
'''Task: '''
We propose that students reduce the Mice sprite character and set up the characters so that they do not to hide behind each other. We remind them that we have already done this once.
 
 
 
We explain that now we will learn to change the stage background.
 
'''Task: '''
We ask the students to click on the stage icon located at the bottom left of the screen.
 
'''We ask the following question: '''
What has changed?
 
: ''The following screen elements have changed: blocks available in the middle of the screen, tabs and their contents. We note that instead of tab '''Costume1''' the '''Backgrounds''' tab has appeared.''
 
: ''We have gone to the '''stage''' edit mode.''
