The Hobbit
January 3rd sees the birthdate of J.R.R. Tolkien - author of both 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings'. Try this 2DIY journey activity that is based on both of those books.
Writing stories using 2DIY
The level editor feature of 2DIY is great for making stories with several pages, or chapters. Create each page as a separate activity (I've used the platform activity here), and then join them together using the level editor. Each page can be made simply with a background image - design your own for the story in an art program - and either add the text then, or use the "T" text tool to add the writing in 2DIY.
To make the next page appear, add a simple challenge - like guiding the bookworm across the screen - to reach a trigger point.
Why not create a story that has a mini game tucked away in the middle of it?
Download Story_template (a 2DIY file)
Remember, that when making a multi level activity load the ".2iy" files, not the ".swf" files into the boxes. Also remember that some of the puzzle activities cannot be used.
Birdsong matching task
Why not try the Bird Identification quiz or the labelling task as well?
