March of Penguins

On Monday we watched a movie called March of Penguins.The challenges that the penguins have to overcome was the climate,when the weather was cold they adapt to it.
Their habitat challenge their livelihood each day by getting used to the climate,seeing predators and mostly learning how to do stuff on their own.
The adaptations of penguins are getting to learn how to survive & learn what to do.
The months change and it is time for the penguins to adapt.It affects the climate because the ice is melting and the penguins have no where to live.

Playing to Learn:Game Rewiew

  
  • What did you learn from your choice of games and genres to review? I learned some new social issue and  a new activity.
  • Name any game features that stood out to you, either because they were interesting or because they could be improved. Shopping Cart Hero was an very interesting game and a game that needs to be improved.
  • Write down any questions you have about the game or genre you chose. You might answer them yourself later!  I would really like to know how to add key board control.
