6/12/14 The 2 scratch projects I liked most was the Apple Destroyer in period 2 and the Gravity game in period 4

6/2/14 I've finished most parts in the program of my scratch. I'm still trying to finish up on the research for my topic. All I have left is the timing. ( I'm so sorry for the long readings in my program) My scratch is an animation NOT a game.

5/20/14 For my Scratch, I will teaching the other students about buoyancy and how it works. I will be working on the ending page or editing the timing of the animation of the Scratch, to see if anything went wrong. I don't need help on the Scratch yet, but I bet I'll get stuck somewhere along the process. The most interesting I've learned during my time doing the project is that a boat acts like an air chamber to lock in air which water pushes the boat up, causing the boat to float. In my Scratch, I'm applying math by using the X and Y coordinates and I'm also using timing, like I mentioned before.

5/12/14 For my next scratch, I will do something on buoyancy. I might make a game on the topic if possible. If I make a game, then the player will pick various objects to throw into the water to see if anything floats. But if the user picks a brick or something heavy then it will sink to the bottom of the scene. I'll try to make it like a race, to win you click the light objects as fast as you can but if you click or get a heavy object it will sink and you loose.

For my animation, I think I deserve around a B, around 185 Instructions : There's a B key, a V key, a M key, and an N key to press.. but you need timing

Scratch Test :

I'm changing the story slightly for the __Bat Needs Friends__

4/16/14 I'm working on the scene where the bat goes into town to meet other sprites. So far, I don't need help on Scratch yet. The most interesting things I've learned was How to show and hide sprites on the scenes, it helps a lot when you want 2 or more characters in the animation. I've also learned how to have the sprite glide across the scene, which makes it more lively. And finally, I've learned how to edit/ paint sprites to give them emotion. I have some math in the Scratch animation. I have timing for the words, action,and costumes. I also have coordinates I have to graph in order for the bat to fly. 4/10/14 I plan to make a short story ,on Scratch, about a Bat making (or trying to) friends. However the bat scares the others away, leaving it dumbfounded. Why do others fear it so much? It keeps trying to find friends, but soon gets depressed, and gives up. Eventually, a brave sprite befriends the Bat and explains why the other sprites fear it.

Here's my Scratch, press the space bar to activate the bat to fly.

I plan to build a Library, a mall, at least a house, a factory, and a restaurant on my futuristic city.

Library: It has eight windows. Two circular, two triangular and the rest are rectangles. The doors for the library are glass with a metal border around it. The Library is 80' 6 1/4" wide and 92' 9 9/16" high.

Mall: The mall is ~ 330' 11 7/8" in length, and 107' 9 11/16" in height.

Restaurant : The restaurant has many windows and it's building shape is a cake - like structure. It is 124' 1" in length and ~ 79' 7 1/16" in height.

House : For my house, it has a hexagonal - like door. also a hexagonal - like tunnel that leads outdoors. It has a cylinder window on the roof, to let in sunlight.It is 56' 4 5/8" wide and 27' 10 7/16" high. (note : You can go inside, problem is, you have to go through the hexagonal door.)
