Diseño de juego Scratch 3 para principiantes: juego Monkey Launcher

****This class is designed for BEGINNER level Scratch coders.****
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS IF YOU HAVE TAKEN SEMESTER 2. This lesson is covered in my Semester 2 class and your child will be repeating if they have already completed semester 2 with me.

My style of teaching is very patient, interactive, and engaging. Each student will be able to share and express themselves as they feel comfortable. Each lesson will leave them excited to create projects using the coding knowledge they acquired in class. 
 
This is a ‘Beginners’ game. It is usually the third game I teach in my Game Design with Scratch class, right after the Platform Game Course.  Although it is a ‘Beginners’ game, we do cover quite a bit in this course!  

Please see below for a list of Scratch skills covered:
-Looping (‘forever’ & ‘repeat’ blocks)
-Event handling (the ‘when key pressed’ block)
-Variables
-Conditional statements
-Creating a sensor using the ‘touching’ block
-Boolean logic (the ‘or’ block)
-Random numbers (‘pick random’ block)
-Coordinating the actions of multiple sprites using the ‘broadcast’ and ‘when I receive’ blocks

Lesson 1: 
-Get the Starter Project. Upload the starter project to your Scratch account.
-Launch your monkey!
-Keep on moving the monkey until he reaches his friends.
-Take the monkey back to his starting position when he reaches his friends.
-Make sure the monkey is at his starting position and facing his friends when a new game is started.
-Bounce the rock around the screen by having it always on the move.

Lesson 2:
-Keep Score!
-Add a point to the score each time the monkey reaches his friends on the other side of the jungle.
-Reset the score back to zero whenever a new game is started.
-Let him eat!
-Have a banana appear periodically.
-Add sound effects.
-Turn the Monkey!
