Microsoft MakeCode Arcade Module
Middle School Computer Science
Computer Science Standards:
MS.PC: Programming Concepts 1) Decompose problems and subproblems into parts to facilitate the design, implementation, and review of programs. 2) Create procedures with parameters that hide the complexity of a task and can be reused to solve similar tasks. 3) Seek and incorporate feedback from team members and users to refine a solution that meets user needs. 4) Provide proper attribution when incorporating existing code, media, and libraries into original programs. 5) Use the iterative design process to systematically test and refine programs to improve performance and eliminate errors. 6) Document programs using comments and/or README files to make them easier to follow, test, and debug. 7) Design a function using a programming language.
Student Directions:
1. Follow the directions on how to create a Cherry Piker Game, or create your own game.
2. Add your own creativity to the Cherry Piker Game and make some changes to the code.
3. Add comments and/or README files to make the game easier to follow, test, and debug
4. Download your game on the Retro Arcade Device. Play your game. Have a friend play your game. Test and debug your game.
5. Copy the link to your version of the Cherry Piker Game or the game you made and share it on the class padlet. This will be how you will get credit for this module.
