Then the school will be rebuilt.<br /><br />In the meantime, our school is being moved to our high school, using every available room or space.<br /><br />Will the new location work? What schedule changes will be needed? How will the mix of elementary and middle school mix with the high school?<br /><br />Time will soon tell.Rcowleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15390628660729786446noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798203610735522614.post-40768138783694359952008-07-16T13:47:00.000-07:002008-07-16T13:59:43.343-07:00World Wide WorkshopThe workshop got into the nitty-gritty. The game groups started thinking about their games. Presenters gave us lots of information about developing games and using Flash.<br /><br />The drawing part of Flash gave me fits. I spent an hour trying to figure out how to paint the floor of my virtual floor. No luck. I had lots of help, but the concluding advice was that this happens sometimes. I also had difficulty drawing a straight line without it curving into another line. I found out to talk out the "snapping" command.<br /><br />I think that drawing backgrounds might be easier to do in Paint and than transferred to Flash.<br /><br />I also found a way to put Javascript into Flash.<br /><br />All in all, it was a productive day.Rcowleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15390628660729786446noreply@blogger.com1
