Instructions

Analogue Clock (Simple) Click the Green Flag to start. Time is determined using the Scratch system time information (not waits). Calculation of the direction the clock hands need to point in, remain in raw form to help kids gain an understanding of why the calculations achieve the required effect (eg. 360/60 instead of 6).

Description

Created by @gregatku for use in Coding Classes for Kids Unlimited, for whom I work as a Coding teacher. Vector Mode was used for drawing all Sprites (clock-face, second, minute & hour hands, as well as minute and hour tick-marks).They all had to share the same centre and lines had to be perfectly straight and pointing right. Vector Mode simplifies that and gives the best results graphically.
