T2W8 Andrew: Recount


Today (Monday the 28th of June) we had two visitors in Ruma
Piwakawaka. Their names were Mr Kanine and Mrs Gurden
they taught us how to use
Tynker and how to code drones. My favourite bit was coding
the drones. For Tynker we made a Pacman game. When we
had finished we got to play it with makey makey. To code our
Pacman game we made a background, an actor and some
scripts. First we used the events coding pieces. Also we
learned the coding had to be like a sentence to make sense for
the computer. For a start I put in when right arrow key pressed
move 10 pixels. But when we tried walking left it keep on
moving right. Funnily enough Mr Kanine called us down for a
maths lesson. Surprisingly doing year one maths was very hard
for us because we didn’t know the name numberline for a
numberline. Luckily for us someone said to do -10 because that
is the opposite of 10. Next we made our maze background.
I coded up and down a different way from everybody else.
Because I made the script when up arrow pressed point
towards top edge or point towards bottom edge.
