Student Voice – Creating an ‘I am learning Club’ by Harry Hodgson

FrogPlay
Hi blog readers!


My name’s Harry Hodgson, a recent year 11 student from a secondary school in Doncaster. For the past year I’ve run an I am learning club, which is a fantastic idea and an easy way to socialise and revise and play games! I want to tell you how to start an I am learning club; what to do and how to do it. Let’s get going…


The I am learning club is incredibly easy to get started:

  • Tell your teachers that you want to start a club and explain that it’s all education based. They will love the idea!
  • Find a computer suite that is free during a lunch time.
  • Once you’ve found a location, ask for permission to promote the club, make posters, banners and any other materials you can think of.
  • Spread the word and get as many people to attend as possible!
  • Elect a couple of enthusiastic people to be Iambassadors who will be responsible and help run the club.
  • Success, you’ve done it! Make sure you keep up the good work and bathe in your own awesomeness.


You have your club. You have your club members… But what now? Well, now you can reap the benefits:

  • Loads of cool rewards and exclusive unlock codes.
  • Socialise with peers, make new friends, but most of all… have fun!
  • Iambassadors are exclusive to the club and allow you to represent I am learning throughout the school and help the club develop new ideas.
  • Receive certificates based on the amount of time you spend on I am learning.
  • Become the brightest I am learner in the class and be the best gamer too!

That is pretty much all you need to know. Remember…the I am learning club is all about you and your peers. I would love to hear all your thoughts and feedback, so drop a comment below and if you have any questions, feel free to get in touch. I hope to see you all running I am learning clubs very soon!

New games!

FrogPlay

You may have seen our ‘coming soon’ post last week. Well, as promised, here are two new games! Check below for some more information about ‘Goals of Glory’ and for ‘Car Tune 2’.

GOALS OF GLORY


  • This game has three difficulty levels. On easy, the opposition player will not move closer than the halfway line. Hard mode means the opponent will be faster, jump higher and have better reactions.
  • The teams don’t have an effect on gameplay, they’re just a way to show your favourite!
  • High scores are saved if you beat your previous best. The score is calculated as your goals, minus their goals. So if you scored 20 goals over all 4 matches, and they scored 8, your final score would be 12.
  • Get used to the exact height your player jumps. This will make it so much easier to anticipate attacks. 

 

CAR TUNE 2
  • There are over 2,000,000 combinations in this game!
  • Both cars are modeled after real world cars. can you guess what they are?
  • At the end of the quiz, you can print out your creation to show your friends!
  • Perfect if you’ve exhausted the options in the original Car Tune.
  • If you like this game, make sure to unlock the original too!

We hope you like these new games. They’re already getting hundreds of plays, and I reckon ‘Goals of Glory’ is going to be our most popular game ever!
