Today I continued and finished my tutorial 3 and decided to stop their for the time being. I decided that I would rather watch the videos on youtube to help me go through them faster and more efficiently. So now I am done with the tutorials and have decided to partner up with Raphel which has been doing the same thing as me these few classes. So we are hopefully gonna try creating a small soccer game. We have planed and agreed to read the chapter one of green foot at home this weekend and come back hopefully ready to start playing around with the soccer game.

class 3
So today I immediately jumped and started to continue off what I had started in last class. I started doing chapter 3 it was going good until it kept denying my work for some reason. The first problem I solved after like 10-15 min of asking and reading about it, My problem was the I had to Capitlaiz one of the letter in which I forgot to. Than everything was normal until it kept on denying my work for the rest of the class I still have not figured out what the problem is but I am going to research about it tonight or tomorrow and continue my work.

2 class
Today I began with some tutorials on green foots main website. And first I started off with the leaves wombats which was kind of fun. The fact that you were able to control something on the screen. So at first I followed the instructions than I started trying out my own number and turns. So that was the first tutorial the second one i started was a little more complicated it was showing more detail to the crabs on the sand.

Today was the first working day of Computer Apps. We started off by filling up our forms for class, I decided that I would like to start doing computer sciences so than I downloaded green foot which than started looking for the tutorial which took quiet a while so I went through it and read a few things. And started playing around with green foot. Just looking through the codes and playing with the leafs and wombats. Which was pretty fun.
