Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 7
Beginner Level
One-Time/Sample Class--This class is a one-time class that allows students to get a taste of what it is like to create a game in Roblox Studio.  If students would like to keep learning after the class, I offer a longer 8-week class that goes into more depth and detail about how to create and code in Roblox Studio.
---------------------------------------------------------------
This is a beginner Roblox/Coding class for students ages 9-13.   This class would be good for students that want to start learning how to make Roblox games, but don't have any experience using Roblox Studio or coding in Roblox.  This class might be too easy for students who have a lot of previous experience making Roblox games.  
---------------------------------------------------------------
Get introduced to using Roblox Studio and the Lua coding language while creating a fun obby (obstacle course) to play with friends and family.  Students in this class will learn the basics of adding objects in Roblox Studio and will even have a chance to script (code) some of the objects in their obby.  

In this class, students will learn to....
-Add basic Roblox parts to their game.
-Move, scale, and rotate parts.
-Change a part's material or color.
-Add a simple script to a part to make it fall after they jump on it.
-Create a simple obby that they can share with friends and family.

Safety:  Parents can choose to have their child not publish their game on Roblox.  A game can be created in Roblox studio (a separate program) and not published.  Students can create and play their game without ever taking it online.

IMPORTANT
-- We do not use the toolbox in this class.  The toolbox consists of models and other items created and scripted by other players.  We stay away from the toolbox for two reasons.  One, students won't learn how to create and script their own items by using other players' creations.  Two, toolbox items can contain viruses that destroy your game.  Please discuss this with your child prior to class.
--Typing skills are important in this class.  Students do not have to be perfect at typing as the code editor helps with words, but they should be comfortable with typing words and finding keys on the keyboard.
