Scratch is this program where you can make stuff and like have fun on it. And there are special blocks that you can use.
I like Scratch because it’s a game and you learn on it like gravity and algorithms as well.
Here’s a link to my Scratch studio
Henry Rousseau – Sound scape
I was learning about Henry Rousseau’s paintings, Tiger in a Tropical Storm at school, in art. So I decided to do a project about Henry at home.
I picked the picture we were using at school. Luckily my favourite animal is the tiger, because my eyes are the same colour as tiger eyes.
What is your favourite animal?
I choose these sounds because tigers growl like this and tried to recreate growling.
It looked like in the picture the tiger looked scared in it.
My friend, Jude and my sister, Nya, helped me.
Turn up the voulme, click on the green button to see it in action, and be patient!
Blast off
Blast off is a easy fun game.
It teaches me about thrust, gravity and rocket ships.
Gravity is a force that keeps you on earth. If you didn’t have gravity you would fly up into space.
Thrust pushes you away from earth, so if you want to go upto space you use thrust to go.
Press the green button. Then press space bar to change the thrust. See how much thrust is neeeded to go up fast! See you on Jupiter!
IN CONTROL !
In control is about space.
Lot’s of my projects have been about space.
Use the arrows to change direction of the ships and space bar to get it to move.
Be careful dont hit the edges!
ASK GOBO
gobo is a fortune teller if you have a question ask gobo and he will answer.
In this project we used a “random block”, if you use this block you will not be able to predict what is coming next.
Here is an example of how random might be used in real life
- if someone asked for a random name it could be a name at the top of your head
- have you ever played dodgeball doctor? if you haven’t this is how to play. Its like normal dodgeball but there is a doctor. If any of your plays get out the doctor will revive them. But… If the doctor is caught, you loose the whole game. So you need to pick a random person as the doctor so the opponents won’t know who is the doctor in your team. So the randomness can be used so no one will know and it is a surprise.
- some times it won’t all be equal like if you try to predict what colour car will pass by you house next you know most of them are black so more chance it will be black.
