Egyptian Tomb Website

  <-   Click to go to my website!

One thing I liked about coding my website was that now I know how to make another website whenever I want! One thing I learned was how to add pictures and how to write in it! One thing I struggled with was I could not figure out how to add pictures and making headers. I would do something like this again because it is fun and I like to code.

Infografic Post

I Learned many things during the project but one fact I learned was that I learned how old Grand Central station is, it opened it’s doors at midnight on February 2, 1913. I learned how to use illustrator  during this project. I might use illustrator in another project so its important that I learned it now. I really enjoyed this project because I got to use fun applications like illustrator and photoshop! I would like to use both of them again because they are very useful for things like: projects, work and more! I would like to make a infographic again because I could write about other stuff i’m interested in! I found it difficult to make the page and edit the pictures on it! I really enjoyed photoshopping the images to make them look right.

Scratch Reflection

 

I think my game/presentation was good, it was one of my best scratch games. I also liked how I made the narrator a puppy. I really struggled with making the trivia part because it always did not work. I am really proud of everything, I think its really good.screen-shot-2016-11-04-at-10-45-36-amscreen-shot-2016-11-04-at-10-46-47-am

The Homework Machine,

By Alfredo

 

51xy5tsjzl-_sx324_bo1204203200_My Book Review is on The Homework Machine. This book is by Dan Gutman. In this book the main characters live in Arizona near the Grand Canyon. There are four main characters: Benton, the smart kid, Sam, the kid who thinks he’s cool, Kelsey, the kid who dyes her hair, and Judy, the teacher’s pet. The main problem is that Benton makes a homework machine and Sam, Judy, and Kelsey find out and start using it. If anyone found out about the homework machine, they would get in big trouble.

 

One event that changes the story is when this guy named Richard Milner e-mails questions to them like “What kind of computer software do you have?” Then after some of the kids get e-mails from Richard, they think maybe he knows about the homework machine! One big decision the main characters make is they all agree that when they are at school and they talk about the homework machine, they can’t say homework machine because they might get caught. They decide to make a code name for the homework machine and they choose Belch.“We needed a code name so we wouldn’t have to say “ the homework machine” out loud in front of other people.” Belch is a big part of the story but the problem does get resolved at the end of the book.

 

I enjoyed this book a lot. I liked how this story is kind of like a mystery. I also liked the idea of the homework machine. The main character’s personalities were very different but they got along. This book is for people who like mysteries and realistic fiction, because a homework machine could be invented. I would rate this book 4 & ½.
