Local Kids Make Games
I thought that the article was really amazing because it really talks about us and how we, being young still, are creating our own games, based on the Social Issue that we picked.Well, Like I said, I really was amazed because not only they were talking about how great our school is by having Globaloria and making our games, but my game was included called, "Race to the White House," which I think is fabulous. Anyways, we are a very exemplary school for others to follow, since I think we are beyond the stars. As I said, I was so proud of myself because on the first day of school, I had many resolutions, and one was to make a playable game for other people to play and then make it to the Globeys. As you can see, I did make all the way, and for that, I am very honored and I have the privilege to see that my game was included in an important article where people can see that we are a hardworking school!
Well, I also think that certain games should have been included. Well, one of them was Climate Changers. They gave facts about these animals that are in danger in the Arctic.I really like their graphics too and I also think that to make a game, you must have an artistic vision. Well, that's all I have to say and I have much more to reach. Well, I am still going to say to myself on the first day of school, "Make a playable game and go on to the Globeys again like I did in 8th grade, so I can be recognized again!" By the way, I was nominated for Special Recognition and I give thanks to Mrs. Arcos because she was the one that helped me with choosing the Social Issue or topic!

Forest Rats-Green Bugs*Michael*
It was one of the best games! I really liked the animation, which looks complicated, but anyways, it was awesome. I think that this is a really interesting topic because I didn't even think about it. I also did like the facts because it makes your game more understandable. I also like the rat and at the beginning. Great job Michael, I really think you deserve something again!
No Gang;More Maze-La Sopa*Laura*
Laura, your game is like awesome! I really like your game because it's actually challenging because when you hit the lines it brings you back to the spot you were. I also like your graphics, it's well drawn and with bright things. I also like the way you put time too, which makes it even harder. Finally, I did learn about gangs and what are the percentages. This game is just amazing!

Final Game
Ana Orozco Posted 5-8-12 Copyright
The name of my team is Yellow Star.
The title of my game is Race to the White House.
The topic of my game is about the Presidential Race of 2012.
The Learning Goal is for you to learn what does a candidate say when asked questions, maybe in real life. When this candidate wins, he/she becomes the U.S president. Not only that, but who makes a good president.
The player will learn about this topic by playing my game by knowing about the candidates too. They can learn what he/she plans to do. If you like his/her idea, then you vote for them. Not only in Race to the White House, but also the real election, that will be taken place in November 6, 2012, so that way, they can vote in real life.
Well, I would've liked to make the winning scenes a little more exciting and at least something with animation.
The most challenging thing in this game was to know what kind of things you wanted to include in your Primary, Secondary, and Winning Scene. This is about the Presidential Race, so it was difficult what to plan in your game and I didn't really want any violence or shooting, since they think about that all the time.
I am really proud of my game because this year, I got to create my OWN ideas. When you are in a team, things might get complicated, in terms of working TOGETHER. One might want something, but the other person might like something else, so I think it's best to work alone, to also improve your skills. Another thing is that you actually learn by creating alone. For instance, I learned how to work with buttons better, which is the thing that I am most proud of because before, I couldn't make them work, so yeah, I am proud at myself too.

Respect
Respect has many definitions. Not only it means to respect your peers, but it can also mean respect for other property. For example, when you are getting markers, when you are finished, you are not going to just put them with other colors. You are going to place them nicely and match them with their own color. A very important thing when it comes to respect, is that before you begin respecting your peers or surroundings, you must respect yourself. How are you going to be able to respect others, when you don't respect yourself? That's another thing, when you don't respect yourself, then you don't respect other people, and that may cost you your friendship with other people. If you don't have respect for anybody, including yourself, then you might as well notice that you will not have any respect, unless you are with a disrespectful or a bully person. Respect is paying attention to the teacher when he/she is talking. If you talk, then you are being disrespectful and when you take that action, you lose their respect to you, and you earn yourself maybe a warning, to not do it again because when you do, you might get in some sort of trouble. Respect is to help out your community. You don't want to live in a dump! You want to live like in paradise, everything clean, no trash, and even with fresh air. When you do that, you have respect for your community. I think that the best way to show respect is when you are being obedient to your parents. We all know that sometimes they can be rough on us, that they don't let us do whatever we want, or maybe they just don't feel you are old enough. I have personally experienced that, and I think that it's a way to realize that we all need respect. Respect is everywhere, including with your pets too!
