LEGO Education provides Scratch-based graphical programming for both the Mindstorms EV3 Set and for the new SPIKE Prime Set. The SPIKE Prime software calls its Scratch-based language Word Blocks. The version of Scratch for Mindstorms EV3 is included in the EV3 Classroom software, which is available for Windows 10 64-bit, macOS Mojave and Catalina and Chromebooks.

Workshop on Coaching a FIRST LEGO League Challenge Teams Using Scratch to Program Their Robots
In 2021 ORTOP has created a four-hour workshop that helps a coach or mentor learn about the programming features of EV3 Classroom and SPIKE Prime Word Blocks. The workshop is divided into four one-hour sessions.
- All Slides Used in the Workshop
- Slides on converting certain version 2 blocks to version 3 equivalents At the time these workshops were created, Version 2 of the SPIKE Prime was the current version. In 2023, LEGO upgraded the app to Version 3. To simplify students' learning of programming with Word Blocks they dropped some blocks and reduced some options of other blocks. These slides describes what to do about certain Version 2 features when using Version 3.
