Programming Hanukkah Cards

In math class, we were supposed to code a holiday card. I had fun playing around on scratch with the different icons and codes. I’ve coded on scratch before but I am not an expert on the site. Deciding on the color scheme, what icons to use, and the overall code was difficult. During the experience, I learned how to change the colors of the icon so it looks like its flashing different colors.  All you have to do to activate my code just click the green flag. Here is a link to my code I made: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/268507355

Explorers reflection

What about this project went well for you? Explain.

It was fun to make because I got to work with my friends on my video.

What about this project did not go well for you? Explain.

1- I didn’t like it because we had to work solo instead of in groups and pairs.

2- I also didn’t like this because of all the additional questions and stuff our teachers added to our work half way to our deadline and didn’t give us much additional time to finish than our original deadline.

How can you create a better project next time? 

1- More time!!!!!! (please)

2- NO work added on to our projects in the middle of working or really at any time during the project.

3- Partners!!!!!

How did you think the planning process went? 

I think it went pretty good.

Were you able to find all the information you needed?

Yeah somewhat.

What could Adon Kaufman and Gev. Noorlander do differently next time?

Let us have PARTNERS!!!!!

What impact did explorers make?

They found the lands we live in today.

Dissection Reflection

  • What is the value of dissecting?

For more background knowledge. It also helped prove the reading correct.

  • How did the dissection help you understand what is happening between the sea lamprey and the trout?

The sea lamprey’s teeth are super sharp no wonder they die so fast.

  • How did you feel about dissection? If you enjoyed the process, why did you enjoy it? If you did not enjoy it, what was difficult about it? 

I didn’t like the experience I think it was super gross mostly because of the insides and the mouth.

Rapunzel Planning Reflection

How did spending more time on planning improve your final blueprint? It helped because we  could add more detail to our planning and final idea for our project.

How did your group come to one final plan after brainstorming several ideas? We came to a final verdict easily because we all liked this idea and think it will be fun to make.

Why do you think taking more time to plan was important? I think it is important beacause it gave us more time to genarate more ideas for our project.

Did brainstorming with multiple people help you come up with more ideas? How? Yes, it did because we all had different ideas and point of veiws so it helped but we also added same ideastogether to get the one we are doing.

What would you differently during the planning process next time? I wouldn’t do anything different because it went good because we thought of plenty of ideas if we faught it was a productive kind of fighting (but we didn’t fight at all).
