HELP! CAN YOU DEBUG THESE THREE SCRATCH PROGRAMS?

DEBUG IT! 3.1 http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/23267140

In this project, when the green flag is clicked an animation of a flower growing begins and stops once it has fully bloomed. But  something is not quite right! Instead of stopping when all the petals have bloomed, the animation starts all over. How do we fix this program?

DEBUG IT! 3.2 http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/24269007

In this project, the Scratch Cat teaches Gobo to meow. But when it’s Gobo’s turn to try — Gobo stays silent. How do we fix the program?

DEBUG IT! 3.3 http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/24269046In this project, the Scratch Cat is supposed to count from 1 to the number the user provides. But the Scratch Cat always counts to 10. How do we fix the program?

  • Keep track of your work! This can be a useful reminder of what you have already tried and point you toward what to try next.
  • Share and compare your problem finding and problem solving approaches with a neighbor until you find something that works for you!
  • Help your neighbor!

If you have finished with the debugging, you can go back to your Simple Chase Game project and keep working on it.
