A Long Week!

TGIF!!!!!I don't know if as a teacher I am supposed to say that but it is true. Although this week has been long, it has been productive. This was Homecoming week so there were LOTS of crazy activities and class disruptions. Through it all, my Globaloria kids managed to pull through. We created all of our team pages and started on our paper prototyping. I am so very proud of all of them. I am looking forward to seeing all of their ideas on paper and video.

The Mini Game!

We have been working on our mini games. The kids have really enjoyed this but are having trouble following specific directions. The games turned out great. I am very proud of my students. I have to admit that I am a little nervous about starting the actual game design. I am sure we will do fine.


Here we go!!!!!

Mini Game.....

Today we really started to get into the mini game. It was a very difficult day. It is very hard to get the students to work at the same pace on this. They are trying so hard and I am very proud of them. It is hard when I don't know the answers to their questions. They are working hard and when it doesn't work, I have no idea why. We are all learning together. When I don't know the answer, usually one of the others does.

Excited Students

Although the past few weeks have been very exhausting and a bit overwhelming at times, it is starting to pay off. My students are so excited about Globaloria. I am amazed at the ideas that they are coming up with. Most of them have really taken it seriously and are excited to jump right into FLASH! The time goes by so quickly. Today we tried to get everyone caught up and a few were working on their mini game. We have ran into a few problems with flash but I think it was because we didn't save it correctly.

Several of the students are really helping me out. They seem to figure things out faster than I do most of the time. Thanks guys (or should I say girls?)
