Sure! Here’s a simple Scratch program that demonstrates the use of if and if-else statements for a grade 6 level:

  1. Open Scratch and create a new project.
  2. Delete the default cat sprite by right-clicking on it and selecting “delete”.
  3. Click on the “Choose a sprite from library” button and select a sprite of your choice (e.g., a dog).
  4. Delete the default backdrop by right-clicking on it and selecting “delete”.
  5. Click on the “Choose a backdrop from library” button and select a backdrop of your choice (e.g., a classroom).
  6. Click on the “Events” category in the blocks palette and drag the “when green flag clicked” block to the scripts area.
  7. Click on the “Looks” category in the blocks palette and drag the “say Hello!” block below the “when green flag clicked” block.
  8. Click on the “Control” category in the blocks palette and drag the “if then” block below the “say Hello!” block.
  9. Click on the “Sensing” category in the blocks palette and drag the “key space pressed?” block inside the “if then” block.
  10. Click on the “Looks” category in the blocks palette and drag the “say Grade 6!” block inside the “if then” block.
  11. Click on the “Control” category in the blocks palette and drag the “else” block below the “if then” block.
  12. Click on the “Looks” category in the blocks palette and drag the “say Grade 7!” block inside the “else” block.
  13. Click on the green flag to start the program.
  14. Press the spacebar to see the message “Grade 6!” displayed. If you release the spacebar, the message “Grade 7!” will be displayed.

This program demonstrates a simple if-else statement. If the spacebar is pressed, the program will display the message “Grade 6!”. Otherwise, it will display the message “Grade 7!”. You can modify the program to include more conditions or actions based on the grade level.
