Scratch Tutorials!!! Animate It

This is the tutorial called Animate It. I tried this out and created a shark that is moving and swimming in the water. To do this I had to first open up Scratch. I had to pick different pics to make it look like its moving. Then I had to pick the buttons from the Control section. These show the time limit, when to start my animation and how long it would be to wait. I then had to go to the Looks section. This shows which costume (picture) to move to. I then picked out my backgrounds. I chose to import a background of the ocean for my animation. This also needed to be assissted with the Control and looks section. I also chose a water sound in the background. This is put in order when I went to the Sound section and chose when and how long to play the sound.
