Creating a Scene (3)

Hope you brought dancing shoes! In this lesson, students will create an animated dance party! Activities include adding a scene with music, activating sounds by clicking or tapping on Actors, and animating characters. Note: Modules in this lesson include a listening component, so headphones (1 per student) are recommended.

Objectives

Students will...
  • Add sounds to Actors
  • Use code blocks to activate sounds by clicking or tapping on Actors
  • Use code blocks to animate Actors

1. Add Music Example (Example)

2. Add Music (DIY)
  • In this DIY project, students will program a Jukebox Actor to play a tune!
  • Did students finish fast? Change the background and add more Actors.
  • Bonus: add more Actors playing different sounds at the same time.
3. Dancing Actor Example (Example)

4. Dancing Actor (DIY)

  • Students will program an Alien Actor to dance to the Jukebox’s tune!
  • Use the “when Actor clicked,” “forever,” “next costume,” and “wait” code blocks to program the Alien Actor to dance.
5. Match the Aliens (Puzzle)
  • To solve this puzzle module, students will need to fix the costumes of the aliens so they all have the same costume.
  • BIG HINT: Each alien needs to have a different “repeat” value. (e.g., “Alien 1” has a repeat value of “4,” whereas “Alien 2” has a repeat value of “3.”)

6. Dance Party Example (Example)

7. Animated Dance Party (DIY)

  • Create your own animated dance party!
    • Select YOUR OWN Actors and animate them to dance to music.
    • Explore the Tynker Media Library and check out the variety of actors!
    • Make it interesting - add more dancing Actors.

8. Musical Actors Example (Example)

9. Musical Actors (DIY)

  • Create your own scene with musical characters that generate different sounds!
  • What sound would make sense for your Actors?
  • Finish early? Create new costumes that will make your own animations!
