Knowledge retention occurs most effectively when there is experimentation and there is an association between understanding what was learned conceptually and a real experience. We propose the development of an extension for Scratch 3.0 allowing the interaction with a CNC (Computer Numeric Control) machine. A proposal of cooperation between two environments in the learning context is created, combining programming in blocks with equipment able to provide outputs in physical objects.
