Batch 2 - Class 22 - App Inventor Session 2

• Let kids discuss on what kind of changes would be interesting to make
• Start a speech when you shake the phone (and toggle the speeches post that on shake)
• Let kids choose a change and make it in next 10 minutes

• Introduce kids to notion of events and actions through couple of examples above. Let them play around with other examples - ask them to explore events on a phone which they can tap into. The keyword "WHEN"

• Introduce kids to notion of conditions. The keyword "IF". Recall Malcolm IF block
• Composition through AND, OR, ETC - let kids play and discover the constructs
• The texting example. Note that you are still responding to events

• Let kids explore properties and the fact that they can change at runtime
• Get width of a button and increase it with every click; revert to original after a point
• Each time the button is clicked, it shows one of three different images (e.g., pics of MLK, Malcolm X, and Rosa Parks). Will require kids to change property of image at runtime

• Use a variable in the expanding button exercise above, so that once the button has reached it maximum size, it starts shrinking on successive clicks (rather than coming back to original size at once). Once it reaches the minimum size, it should again start expanding, and so on.
• Component properties are also variables

• Thinks about interesting features you could add to the button above and implement it
