For Scratch Project, you will need to do some research so today and Monday will be research days.  You need to get on Scratch and start researching what kind of game you want to build.   There are many different types of games and you should be thinking about a game YOU would like to play.  So yes, play some games but with the thought of what you would like to make.

There are many resources on YouTube and other sites as well.  Be creative, have fun, and FOCUS!

May the force be with us all!


Today's agenda:

Good day all,
Finish up any last details on your drawings as we are done today with this project today.  You'll need to post your work and write up a reflection for this project.  The reflection needs to include: 
  1. A description/purpose of project
  2. Detailed steps to create your project (how you used layering, line color, shape color to create images that were not what they appeared to be)
  3. How you feel about your project
When your done, search for Chrome Music Lab, put on your headphones, and have some fun!
