PUT YOUR SMILE ON YOUR DIAL! In this program, you are going to learn how to create your own accurate, digital clock and taking inspiration from artist Maarten Baas, you are going to make it original, animated and interesting! Using Scratch, you will code a clock that reflects the current time of your location with the hour, minute and second hands. Then, you can code the clock face to change every hour to something of your choosing (your face, an emoji, your cat...anything!) In the example provided you will see we have used a selection of emoji and a very happy child for our clock faces. This program uses a range of coding techniques in Scratch including show and hide, sprites and costumes, and control and operator blocks. Can you think of something else to use for the clock hands? Try to create some sprites using your own images. Can you think of other images you could use for the dial? How about a flower blooming or the earth rotating? What will you come up with?
