 6th Grade Students Become Game Designers!
Our 6th graders have been busy exploring the stars and galaxies! Students in Mrs. Conway's class have taken on the role of game designers, creating fun and educational games that teach others about astronomy. Following the design process, our young innovators planned, created, tested, and improved their games. The ultimate challenge? Sharing their creations with fellow 6th grade students and receiving valuable feedback. Way to shine, future game developers!
