Introduction

Project 1: Animated Nursery Rhyme
Students
will
use
BYOB
basics
to
implement
an
animated
version
of
a
nursery
rhyme.
Overview
A
nursery
rhyme
is
a
short
poem
or
song
written
for
children.
Though
the
term
is
typically
applied
to
British
or
other
English
language
poems,
similar
concepts
exist
in
many
world
cultures.
These
short
stories
are
generally
meant
to
entertain
and/or
calm
young
children.
Some
are
believed
to
have
a
hidden
moral
or
meaning
related
to
historical
events,
but
many
of
these
meanings
are
questionable.
Details
Behavior
You
will
create
a
short
animation
in
BYOB
depicting
a
nursery
rhyme
of
your
choice.
(See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nursery_rhymes
for
a
list
of
possibilities.)
• Whenever
the
green
flag
is
clicked,
your
BYOB
animation
should
display
your
chosen
nursery
rhyme
line
by
line
somewhere
on
the
stage.
(This
should
work
correctly
even
if
the
last
run
was
interrupted
and
restart.)
• As
each
line
is
shown,
sprites
should
act
out
the
story.
• The
animation
should
advance
on
its
own,
but
should
do
so
at
a
pace
that
allows
each
action
to
complete
and
the
viewer
to
read
the
line
before
the
next
line
is
shown
and
new
action
begins.
• In
addition,
the
sprites
must
act
out
the
rhyme;
you
should
not
simply
create
a
series
of
static
backgrounds
or
costumes
that
show
a
stop-‐motion
version
of
the
story.
• Each
line
must
be
readable
and
must
stay
shown
while
the
corresponding
action
is
occurring.
• When
the
story
ends,
there
should
be
a
way
for
the
user
to
replay
the
entire
animation
from
the
beginning.
• You
are
free
to
be
as
creative
as
you
like
with
your
choice
of
sprites
and
actions.
You
may
choose
from
the
sprites
provided
by
BYOB
or
create
your
own.
(You
will
not
be
graded
on
your
artistic
skills.)
You
may
interpret
the
nursery
rhyme
literally
or
be
clever
with
your
depiction
(but
don't
go
too
far).
However,
all
sprites,
behaviors,
words,
and
animations
must
be
school-‐appropriate.
If
you
choose
a
particularly
long
nursery
rhyme,
you
may
not
need
to
animate
the
whole
thing.
Please
check
with
your
teacher
if
you
think
your
rhyme
is
long
enough
for
this.
Implementation Details
As
mentioned
above,
your
animation
must
display
the
nursery
rhyme
in
its
entirety
and
animate
each
line.
Action
must
be
performed
by
sprites
and
must
consist
of
more
than
simply
changing
costumes.
You
must
include
the
following
components
in
your
animation:
