Two stars and a wish

Today we were asked to make a post about two stars and a wish. Two stars is two things that you did well or you are most proud of and the wish is something you would do differently next term or, a goal you have in mind for next term. One of my two stars is that I really enjoyed ICT talent development because I learnt how to use Alice and Scratch and I also got to programme and build a Lego Mindstorm. My other star is the chess leader-board because everyone wants to get to the top and they won't stop at anything to get there! My wish is to programme the Lego Minstorms to do a bigger range of stuff, not just moving forward and then stopping.

Scratch Tutorials

Today for ICT talent development we were making our own programming tutorials. The one that I am making is about how you make sprites on Scratch. Sprites are characters that you can either create yourself or download off Scratch. Sprites are really easy to make and you can make sprites that are cats, dogs or even dinosaurs! The tutorials are easy to make because all you need to do is open Active Inspire and click on the tool that is a video camera and choose either full screen recorder or area recorder. For area recorder you choose the area that you want to film, press launch recorder then it will come up with something that looks like this:

Then you press the red button and it will come up with this:

Then you press save and it will start filming!
