Preparation

Make sure that Scratch is installed on the classroom computers. If you don't see the Scratch Icon on the desktops, follow these installation instructions

Points

Perhaps we could pass the mouse around, and kids could point to the various features of Scratch. This might be a cool idea, and would keep the kids' focus on the main screen, keeping them all on the same page.

Demo Packages

TODO: Find way of uploading .tgz files to wiki.
