media type="custom" key="24234788" 1. **Add your 2 reflection** posts to your website; Refection Week 10, and the second Reflection Week 10. Details on Week 2, this is an every week assignment. NO exceptions. There is never substitution for the weekly reflections form the blog list, everything we do is in addition to this. 2. If you were in class, we did everything in class except write your reflection about the experience with SCRATCH. @http://scratch.mit.edu/. Add your reflection to your website about today's experience using SCRATCH. What did you think, how could you use this, or could you, if not why, dig deep into your experience and add your project to your project to the post. **Make sure you create an account, otherwise you will not be able to save and share your project.** 3. **Title the Post,** //Scratch in the Classroom, My first experience//. Don't forget to add the embed code for your Scratch project. When you click the share link in the upper right and then scroll down just a bit to locate the embed code. 4. **And add the** **LINKS**: http://scratch.mit.edu/ and ScratchEd: @http://scratched.media.mit.edu/ to your reflection. 5. Also make sure you tie this to at least a couple Common Core standards at some grade level. Likely Math, but could also fit in a variety of standards. To find the Common Core Standards, go to @http://www.corestandards.org I realize you are just beginning to learn about the Common Core Standards, but do you best to discuss how the project we did in class aligned with CCS. 6. Make sure you download the scratch curriculum below and look these lessons over before you write your reflection. And make sure you look at some of the "Featured projects and the Explore tab" before writing your reflection, I think you will be amazed at what you find. 7. **If you were not in class** go to the links in #3 and #5 (//below//) and explore, explore, did deep and give SCRATCH a try. Then write your reflection on what you discovered and add/link to your scratch project. Here is a list of SCRATCH tutorials: http://goo.gl/794QGl 8. Check out these LINKS: http://scratch.mit.edu/ and ScratchEd: @http://scratched.media.mit.edu/ ** 9.

Scratch Exercise 1: Choosing a Sprite and Making it move in 4 directions.: The Scratch program was developed by MIT to teach young students programming concepts and develop skill in multimedia communication. Using a visual system of "Tiles" that contain commands users can connect together to create programs. These programs direct the characters and objects in the game. @http://nebomusic.net/scratchlesson1/scratchexercise1.html
