Genre:)

       My favorite game genre is  Strategy:)
      I learned  that Strategy video games generally take one of four archetypal forms, depending on whether the game is turn-based or real-time and whether the game's focus is upon strategy or military tactics:)

The Diary of Anne Frank:(

What are your thoughts on the film The Diary of Anne Frank so far?
         I thought that the movie was good. My favorite part of the movie was when Anne told Peter ''if he had kissed someone'' and he said "my mom''.   The sad part of the movie was  were they got caught because when the got separated they did not all go to the same place. I think that any one who is ever body should see this is intersting,fun,but at the same time sad:(

Mini Games

     So far I've been learning how to do  Mini Games.  The mini game project  is easy because all it really is, is to  copy stuff on to your actions layer. The fun part about this is that we  are a head of other classes and we get to watch a movie.

Weekly Blog

                 MiNi GaMe
Today I did a mini game. I got up to the second step. I learned how to move the carrot to side to side. We have to have at lest 4 different items on the mini game. We have a carrot,a bunny,a wolf, and a pizza.
  

             What I want to learn:)


                  I want to learn how to make a game fast because people can play it and learn what they should eat and what cause obesity. I like learning about obesity because I know what Ican eat and can't eat.
                
      I know??


         I know that doing mini games can help me do a big game so it can go around school and other place here in eastAustin.I think that I can go fast and pay attion I will know how to do it faster. This class is a okay because we get to play games and learn how to make a game:)
   
   My successes in GLOBALORIA:)
  My successes are that Im go at learning how to do mini games.On the frist day of school I did not not  know what we were going to do and I thought it was going to be hard but this class it getting easier and easier for me.I think being in here can help me do well on computer if I ever use one in the future.

Then they to found out that Vidia took them.But they were running out of time they olny had 2 days to solve the mystery of why she stold them.

Blog For Week:)

 The movie Paper Clips was about students who wanted to see how much 6,000,000 was. They found out that11,000,000 Jews died because the Nazism gased them. The  students of whiwill came up with an idea so that they can learn more about them. They had said lets get a part of a train and put all the paper clips in the train. They had got more over 6,000,000. They got 29,000,000 paper clips.This movie was sad:(                                               

        I been learning how to make a game.My topic is obesity because I think that people that are over wieght can help them self and be came heathier.Also people that are obeste always get made fun of. People if you think you are obeste figure out what you can do to NOT  prevent that.
    
   
     I learned that I can do links. Well the first time a tried it, it was hard. I thought the first time it was going to be easy but guess not. Now I can do it and its easy. My goals is to always know how to do links:)
   

     Yesterday I went to brainpop to see videos about obeste people. For my game I think that this is produtive because people can see what you can do to keep your wieght the same.If your obeste is it bacause  you eat what your mine tells you or you need it a lot.This topic inspired me because I see a lot of people that are obeste:)

Communication:)

Using the Internet is all about communication. What are some ways that the Internet is used for communication? Which do you think is the most important and why?? 
           I think that communication on the internet is important because we can say what we need to say to some one that doesn't have a phone.Also like youtube because it has videos and music that people put on to show them what people do for  fun. Yahoo, and Google because it can help you look for what you need to find.If you have a computer at home you can write to friends and family that you have not talk to in a while.

Nutrition:)

These thangs are important because when we eat meat we are killing cows. If we eat less meat and more greens we can save us and the animals that we kill.I think that us as a cummunite can change the way that we effect animals. People what you do and eat we can have a better planet:)

Dirt The Movie:)

What did you learn from watching Dirt! The Movie? How was Dirt! The Movie similar or different from Food, Inc.? Which one did you like better? Please explain why.I like that the movie dirt it tells me that people all over the world do some thing with dirt.I also learned that with out dirt we would have a different climate. Over  1/3 of our dirt we have lost in several of years. I also learnd that in 1 year 100,000,000 trees are cut down. In Brizzal the forest is all cut down. Farmers are convinced to by stuff for their  farm  and the farmers don't know that its hurting the dirt. Over 5,000 people kill there self because of and the stuff they grow is dying.      

Flex Your Power Challenge

I played Flex Your Power Challenge. This game was helping me learn stuff like use the light when you need it.This game taught me that when we save light we save money and the world.It also taught me what i need to know about the world.

What Movie I Liked!!!

Which of the movies that we have seen in class meant the most to you? I think the movie Dirt taught me that no matter what you do,like building a basketball court or move dirt you hurt the dirt.The soical issue is what  ever you do to the dirt you hurt it. So my edvice is dont do stuff to the dirt. So dont build road or stuff that covers the dirt:)
