Clock activity? Activities about time?
Dear Chocolate Frosted Sugar Geeks, is there a Sugar activity displaying a simple clock? What activities can be used to teach things about time? (seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades, centuries...) Is there a simple calendar activity? Can we manipulate the earth and visualize earth enlightenment depending on the position and the hour of the day? Any hint welcome. Thanks! -- Bastien ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Hi Bastien, is there a Sugar activity displaying a simple clock? Yes; search for Clock on http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities. What activities can be used to teach things about time? (seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades, centuries...) I don't think there is one yet. We could do this in a Pippy example, or in eToys? - Chris. -- Chris Ball [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

(Pygame or Etoys based). Any hint welcome.

Last time around, I made this Etoy: http://dev.laptop.org/~yoshiki/etoys/Clock.004.pr The idea behind it was to be able to move hands around, and show the relationship between the values and the angle of hands. http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/5255 -- Yoshiki ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
