This week 5-6 will be working in Scratch. I will be gone the 12th through the 18th so please refer to my site for any resources or examples. Once your work is complete please inform the sub and you may use nitro type, Hour Of Code, Be Internet Awesome, Pivot Animator, Paint 3D or Lego Builder. 
 
Here are the resources for the days I am away:
 
You and a partner (or by yourself) will create a dj. You must design the background the way you want it to look and then add blocks and behaviors to play different sounds when different keys are pressed. Please see this example for ideas. 
 
Make a musical animation. You and a partner (or by yourself) must have a backdrop, at least four sprites and they must all make a different sound. No YouTube! You must use the sounds in scratch or record your voice. 
 
Create a story! You and a partner (or by yourself) must have at least two backdrops, two sprite characters and they must say something to each other. 
 
Friday the 15th: You choose! You may work with a partner or by yourself and you will make an animation of your choice. You can make a musical animation, a story or a game! 
 
Monday the 18th: Please start with a 10 minute typing warm up on typing.com. Today you may choose an Hour of Code activity or make your own Scratch animation. You may work with one other person or by yourself. See you tomorrow!
