Monday

No Homework.

Trip Wednesday

We read and discussed The Hockey Sweater by Roch Carrier.

In math - Converting fractions to decimals

In the lead up to Remembrance day, we had a very engaging discussion on WW2. Mature and thoughtful comments from many students.


SCRATCH
Your assignment.

Make a simple game.

Step 1:
-Delete the cat.
-Choose three sprites
-- One that you will move around (like a wizard or something)
-- One thing the wizard will collect (like an apple maybe)
-- One thing that kills the wizard (maybe a ghost or whatever)

Step 2
Get this code here, put it into your backpack, and use it to make your wizard move.


Step 3
Make a variable called Points

Step 4
In the wizard, make a code that says "If touching apple, change points by 1 and hide the apple"

Step 5
In the wizard, make a code that says "If touching ghost, change point by -1 and hide the ghost"

Step 6
Make a bunch of apples with the same code and spread them around the screen.
Make a few ghosts too,

Step 7
When green flag is clicked, show all sprites and set points to zero

Play the game. Show me!!!

BONUS
Choose a few backgrounds.
When points get to ten, change backgrounds, show all sprites, play the game again. Maybe make the apples and ghosts move or flash.
