What I have learned while I have worked on my game?

Well................ I have learned a lot. I think that our game will be a great game. Here is the link to our Team Page http://www.myglife.org/usa/wv/srmswiki/index.php/Team:Tigers. I think that our Team Page is proof that we have done all of the work that we say we have done. So far I have done the Title screen and uploaded it to our Team Page. The title screen has three buttons on it. So that means that I will have to make 5 pages just for the title page. Heather has to do the About The Game. I think that she has that page done. The game is going to be a big hit! I think that we will wor good together.

What I have Learned about the Judical Branch while we have done our paper prototype!

I have learned all about the Judical Branch of government. I have leaned that the Judical Branch has to do with the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court is the highest court in the land. There is a basketball court in the Supreme Court building. The basketball court in the Supreme Court is very pretty.There were some people that came to our school.They came from Charleston. They said that we all had very good and cool game ideas. They told Heather and I to stay away from the quiz games, which is what we had at first. Then we change it to a fun and educational game. Our game is very fun, I think. The peoples names are David, Rachel, And Abbie Taylor. They were nice about everything. They told us to stay away from the quiz games like I said before. Then, we took the questions out and put two cases in.

What about Your Game?

What about my game?

Well what do you want to know? Our game is going to be about one of the three branches of government. The branch is going to be the judicial branch, which involves the Supreme Court. I have qpuestions on my game about Sandra Day O'Connar and the Supreme Court. There are some questions on our game, such as What year did the first lady,(which is Sandra Day O'Connar) get into the Supreme Court? The answer is 1981. There are other questions like How many members does the Supreme Court have? The answer is 9 . And other questions like What year did Sandra Day O'Connar retired? Which is the year of 2005. There are other questions. We have 10 levels. All levels will be based on the Judicial branch.The way we have set up the game is that you can play the game, then after you get 10 points, you will be able to answer question. After you answer the question, you can go on to the next level. There is only 10 levels and when you get to the end of the 10th level you will see a page that says Congrats You Won! Our game is going to be lots of fun and challenging. You will learn lots of facts, but I think the way that we set up the game it will be a lot of fun learning all of these facts. The way we have set up this game, I think that it will be alot of fun. We have our game ideas on our Team Page. Here is the website for the page, http://www.myglife.org/usa/wv/srmswiki/index.php/Team:Tigers

what does freedom of speech mean to you?

What does freedom of speech mean to you?

Freedom of speech means to me that you can say whatever you want and you won't get in trouble.

Are there any restrictions to your expression of views, likes, and dislikes?

Well it all on if it is appropriate for school or it is appropriate for your work place.

If Mr. Campbell forbid you to wear your favorite shirt to school, would he be right in doing so?

If it wasn't appropriate for school if he would tell me instead of getting mad (if he would do that). I would probably understand. I would not wear the shirt to school again.

If your locker was searched, would you have a right to refuse a search? Why?

Yes, because that is your personal place to keep all of you things.

Here are two websites that have things to do with the bill of rights: http://www.surfnetkids.com/games/bill_of_rights-ws.htm

Game Idea Blog

Our game idea is going to be about the Judicial Branch of government. I think it will be fun and educational. The Judicial Branch of governmentis mainly about the Supreme Court. You can tell because it the letters jud in it. These letters are the main letters of the word judge. As you all know that you can not have a court without a judge. The loading page of our game is going to be a basketball that is black and white, and as the page loads the basketball will get color and by the time the whole game has loaded the basketball will be orange. The first page is goingto be when you can chose your character (which will be a boy or girl). Then you can chose the age of your character (which will be from the age of one through fifteen). Then the second page will be the first level. All of the levels has at least four pages with it. All of the 10 levels are like that.
