L.O: To understand scale factors (know: understanding) Success criteria: 1) I can understand what a scale factor is and how it is used in everyday life 2) I can use multiplication to enlarge shapes 3) I can understand how to find scale factors
L.O: To show my understanding of scale factors (show: applying) Success criteria: 1) I can apply my knowledge of scale factors to enlarge shapes 2) I can find missing measurements using my knowledge of scale factors 3) I can explain to others how to find scale factors
Tasks: · Watch the tutorial on a review of scale factors
·Complete challenge 1 ‘scale factor challenge 1’ or challenge 2 ‘scale factors finding missing sides challenge 2’ in the attachments below. Challenge 2 is the hardest. When it gives the scale factor as a ratio for example 1:2 it means the shape is twice as big, so 1:3 would mean the shape is three times bigger (or enlarged.)
·Extension: To create your own scale factor questions and provide answers to your own questions. Use challenge 2 as a guide to help you with this.
· The answers are provided so please self-mark and let me know how you did. |

computing LO- To understand how to programme costume changes for a sprite Success criteria 1. I can design a new costume for an existing sprite 2. I can design code to switch between costumes 3. I can add appropriate effects to a costume change
Open the splat game that you created yesterday and remind yourself of the game so far.
Now watch my tutorial to learn how to add different costume changes for your sprites. You can watch the tutorial the whole way through or pause when suggested and work alongside the video. https://youtu.be/ZA1CfpmJ1u0
I have added the coding used for the game as a resource to download if you need some extra help. Tasks 1. Change the costume for the character sprite 2. Change the costume for the balloon to pop. You will need to edit this yourself using the paint tools. 3. Programme the character sprite to change costumes when it jumps 4. Programme the balloon to burst when it hits the sprite or the wall 5. Add an appropriate sound to the balloon bursting
Extension: Try duplicating one of the character sprite costumes. Can you use your own paint skills to carefully edit the character and create another costume? You could change the expression of the character or move its arms or legs for jumping and landing!
