A “What I Did This Summer” Project for 21st Century Learners

A “What I Did This Summer” Project for 21st Century Learners

This back-to-school season, your students can recap their summer vacations using a fun new creative medium: coding!

With this project, your students will follow step-by-step instructions to create their own interactive slideshows about what they did this summer. They’ll come up with several scenes that represent their summers, find or draw backgrounds to represent those locations, design a custom narrator character, and put it all together using code to come up with a fun project they can share with the class.
