Painting Level Two
In 7th grade today we made some excellent progress on painting our level 2 backgrounds for our Scratch mazes. Today there was an example of a peer review.
In each class we discussed in a positive way that a student could improve upon their design. In period 7/8 we had a short painting demo on how to use the brushes and the paints.
The Big Picture
Some students were wondering about the big picture so here is a general road map to where we are headed over the next couple of weeks.Introduce ScratchIntroduce Level One of Maze GameComputer Lab - Programming Level One- Start painting Level Two background of maze game
- Finish painting - start scanning
- Computer Lab import background into Scratch and programming
- Computer Lab finish programming - bug testing
- Present Programs in class
- Introduce Elements of Design
- Introduce Principles of Design
- In class critique of Level 2 paintings using the elements and principles of design
On Wednesday I anticipate many of you to be ready to scan their level 2 paintings and be able to start programming level 2 in class.
Friday will be a lab day so all students should be ready to either be done with their projects on Friday or the following Tuesday.
