Student Motivation! :D

I have played a lot of online games but one game that has really helped me is called Flower Power. This game is very cool and fun. It also helps you learn a lot. It helped me learn from my mistakes so I could correct them. Games are a very fun way to learn math and imakes students like math more. In our game sine wechose a different topic there aren't many things we could use in our game. They used drag and drop and we are using arrow keys. We could use some of the design plans though. By playing these games it helps kids become smarter and really enjoy learning new things. I really enjoyed playing this game!!!

Flash Experience

Today we are blogging about our experiences in flash, the tutorials, the best part of our game, and the special effects our game will have. We have accomplished a lot of stuff in flash we learned a lot about the flash progam. There are a lot of things you can do in flash a lot more than I thought you could. This year we have watched a lot of tutorials in flash such as how to add buttons, animation, and at the begginning of the year we wached a basic flash tutorial. These  tutorial helped me learn a lot about flash. Our game will have a lot of sound effects to go with every scene and also a lot of animation. By doing this it will make the game more fun to play and it will also be more interactive. The best part of our game is probally the design is very unique since were girls and our game is about rockets. Our design plan is made for boys or girls.

Online Educational Games

There are thousands of educational games online and I think educational games are good for children who go to school. Educational games are a fun way to learn new stuff and still have fun. I have played a lot of educational games such as on study island and coolmath. Also for my nintendo ds I used to play a game called Brain Age. I learned a lot from playing these games such as how to plot points, exponents and about rounding numbers to the nearest whole. These games create a great new learning experience for students. I really enjoy playing these games online.
