Project 1: Cats and Metric Conversions
This week I took on two projects from the Scratch text. One was a simple conversion project. This project was quite dull however gave a great template with many different applications in the classroom. I used the text project file and adapted to entertain me and give useful information on metric conversions. The resulting project shows very colorful cats dancing around a screen displaying different metric conversions of meters and kilometers.

Project 2: Winder Wonderland
This project asked for a writing program designed to program a set of procedures for the scrip to follow concerning the writing of a snowflake. I took this idea to make a sort of randomized scripted Winter Holiday e-card. The program initially just drew a snowflake with a set of dictated procedures. I took this script and created a program that has an alternating background and music added for a bit of humor in the program.
