Saving your work

This is a good time to save your project. You would be wise to do this every 10 minutes or so, then you can be sure that you won’t lose any of your hard work. When working on a big project, save it in two places, then you have a backup.

To save your project, click File, then Save – the Save Project window will open.

Tip...

Use a name that will help you to find the project again. Always use an _ (underscore) between words in filenames – don’t leave an empty space.

By default, it will save your work to the Scratch Projects folder. This is a sensible place to store your work, so type in a new filename, at the bottom. I’ve called mine “roman_play”, so pick a different file name for your project or you will save yours over mine! Click on OK to save. Wow! That is a lot for the first lesson. Have a play with Scratch – experiment with different blocks of code to find out what they do. Then come back when you have had a good rest and try Lesson 2.
