Wow, it's almost thanksgiving, and I can't wait! Thanksgiving is full of joy, and I am so thankful for it. This week is our last week of school for Sandy River then I will get to spend a whole week with my family and friends for Thanksgiving. I am so thankful to have friends like I do and the family that I have. Thanksgiving is going to be different this year but it is still going to be full of love a joy. The change is good because my family and I get to go to my aunt's house to have our Thanksgiving dinner, instead of them coming to our house. It is going to be so fun because we get to spend all night with each other and go shopping on Friday. Thursday is going to be the best though, because we are having dinner with each other and some of our family friends is getting to come also. I am just so thankful to have them people in my life to love and cherish. Oh and don't forget about my church family, we give out food to the families that don't have a lot and can't buy a meal for their Thanksgiving dinner. I am just so thankful to have church family as great as I do, and to be able to help with a helping hand. Thanksgiving is just so awesome and I can't for it to come around every year.
Well, the mini game wasn't the easiest or the funniest, but in the end it was pretty good. I wasn't the best uploading it, and getting the code, so I had one of my globaloria friends to help me. She was excited to help me and learn me how to upload the mini game. The way that my friend Hannah helped me, she gave me advise that showed me and explained to me how to get the code and upload it. After that it was a little better and I understood it more. I am so glad to have a friend like her to explain things to me, and in the end the mini game wasn't so bad after all.
My team members is great. We agree on most of everything, although there are some tiny things we argue over. Arguing is a habit for sisters though, yes I said sisters. My partners ended been my bestfriends, sister, and other half. So when we argue it's because we are sisters. Although we have improved alot from the begining of the year, I just think that we have got older though. On our game we agree on almost everything, and we try and give each other the same amount of work to do on our game. So nothing really is a problem now. I am so thankful to have friends as great as them and to have them as my partners. I wouldn't change anything for them and I love them to death. And been besfriends I think that our game is going to be great.
Although flash is fun and very helpful to our game, it is hard and a big challenge sometimes. Buttons is the easiest I think also creating scences with different key frames. Animations and coding is the biggest challenges to me and it can make our game slow sometimes because I have difficulties with them. Finding the codes is easy but the hard put is setting it up. Setting up the buttons is really fustrated to me. After practice and learning more about the coding I think that we could set it up great in our game. The one thing is, learning how to set them up. Overall I think we will get good with it, and our game will come together. Flash in awsome and I love to work with it and even with the challenges that come with it.
My game is about the Allegheny Plateau, so that is what my partners and I are focusing on. Allegheny Plateau is one of the four geographic region's of West Virginia, and it is in our category of eighth grade, so that is why we are doing it on the Allgheny Plateau. My part in the game is to help my partners design it also gather information, so is my partners part. Some of our information came from learning in the West Virginia Studies class and on different WV sites. The reason that this game was chosen is because we are from West Virginia and we love to learn new things and facts that we don't know about the Allgheny Plateau. Flash is a major part in our game, because it has many resources such as animations, buttons, and designs that really make our game stand out. We haven't really had any trouble on our game yet, but if I said something was hard it would probably be designing and drawing our game on flash the exact way that we want it. Paper prototype has really helped me in our game, and we all three plan on using it through out our game.
