From Waterfall!

Aaa ok my forum notifications are wack I thought there weren’t any new posts - I have two activities ready, which one should I post when I get back?

1 - they analyze data and write about which sector they believe should investigate for rebels (so it’s a mini exercise on argumentative writing, analyzing data, and citing said data) and then for the second more chill part, they do “field observation” where they go outside for like 20-30 minutes and note things they observe in an observation report

2 - industry management, production has stopped in the factories and they have to figure out what to do to fix it and write about it. I’m not in love with that one so I kind of feel like I should go with the first activity and edit this one more. And for the chill activity it’s an efficiency management assignment, where they have to organize their desk, work area, bag, or something like that

And then in like five or so days I think I start the rebel spy test interactive

Forum notifications are so weird sometimes, ahaha- If you could post them whenever you get the chance, that'd be great!! I also like the first one better, but I think we can keep the plot of the first one (and I like the chill activity), but maybe edit the writing activity? It might be nice to do some more fictional writing as opposed to just argument/persuasion/nonfiction skills like this activity and activity one explored? And then we can have a final writeup where there find the rebels or something because I don't think we'll have time for more than two activities, since we're already over halfway through the session!

Plans for up until next week because I will probably forget to do this later:
Saturday (tomorrow): Going to another city for the day, will be on in the morning and late afternoon/evening, less so during the day
Sunday: Church, watching the World Cup finals
Monday: Driver's test! And going camping
Tuesday: Camping
Wednesday: Camping but also coming back home
Thursday: Volunteering with my church, will basically be inactive all day
Friday: Nothing currently but we will probably make plans for this day

It's going to be kind of busy for me until the end of the session because we've got a bunch of things to do before we leave to go back to Singapore, but seeing as I sleep somewhat late and wake up early, I do expect that I can probably respond to things at least once on most days! I will have inconsistent internet when camping, by the way, plus I'm going to try to take a break for once, so I'll probably be less active then

Hmm maybe I somehow switch it to create a story to tell the people to appease them

Ooh, that could be interesting! Like make up a plausible explanation to tell them? This could be something to do with a plot arc/outlining, perhaps.

ok so what if instead of the first activity for this one, there are a couple prompts, like:

The people in sector x are getting restless. Create a story about a neighborhood hero to lift their spirits!

The people of sector y are showing signs of aggression. Create a story that can serve as a metaphorical cautionary tale.

The people of sector z's food and water shipments have been captured, but we don't want the people to know. Create a plausible excuse to explain why it is delayed.

i'll come up with two more. the one thing i'm missing for the activities is the thumbnail, if you could send that somehow it would be great <3

Hopefully I can post when I land

That looks great!

For the thumbnail, are you looking for the same one as the activity 1 thumbnail, just with the number updated? Or are you looking for a new one?

A note on the camping trip: Last time I went, I did have some internet (though reception is very poor), but I will also not be able to charge my phone there, so it'll be pretty minimal activity still because I need to conserve battery!

since you're busy with camping i'll just make one in the same style with the activity # changed

also edit - I posted my activity summaries when i was like half asleep.. either i posted it in the wrong place or scratch just ate my post?? because i genuinely can't find it anywhere :sob: except for snowy's snip

second update: activity project is shared https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1363232924/
