10:10 SkillsUSA

Each team will have different work this morning based on your chosen competition:
Read your teams assignments carefully. A big part of the competition is being able to follow the guidelines that are written for each competition.

By Friday at end of lunch 12:55pm – create a folder with your two names on the Public inside of the weeks “skillsUSA” folder. The folder is found at Public/CAWD. For example if Mr. Cronin and Mr. Bohmann were working together the folder would be:

“croninBohmann”

Create your folder in the discipline you are working in. DO THIS FIRST

See Mr. Cronin’s Dayplan for specifics – read carefully

See Mr. Cronin’s Dayplan for specifics – read carefully

Read carefully, there are many deliverables. Planning is going to be key! On the day of the State competition, you’ll have about 6 hours. That requires efficiency. This project will be due Friday, March 7th at 12:55. Get as far as you can this week.

ProTip: while the creative director is designing the layout, the programmer should be roughing the files, index.html, nav and the basics that almost all web pages require.

This week’s deliverables:

Create a Website for Streetgreens
Create a nav menu that sticks to the top of your index.html page
- Your Nav Pages are:
  - Menu (links to the menu page)
  - Locations
  - Gift Cards (links to a real page showing what a gift card looks like – you’ll design the gift card!)
  - Rewards
  - Careers
  - Order Now Button (links to the order page)
- Streetgreens logo in upper left hand corner
- Here is some information about Streetgreens you can harvest. You will need to paraphrase and cull accordingly.
- Here are a pile of images you can choose from and use as you like (many are of the build which is probably not in your best interest)
- Here are a pile of food pics you are welcome to use
Below the Nav is a Hero image
- Inside the Hero image is text: “Streetgreens Food Truck – More Greens for your Green“
- You can display the text anyway you want; two lines, one line, different sizes – you choose
- A reference on how to make a hero image
Create a menu.html page that links from the menu link in your nav
- One the menu page include this information with images from this images folder
  (a hero image is in this folder for you too unless you choose a different one from another folder)
Create a order.html page that links from your nav (here is a reference on how to make a form)
- Create a form that asks:
  - First Name
  - Last Name
  - Radio button choices for each salad
  - Submit button (does not have to go anywhere)
All pages you create will have the sticky nav at the top with logo that link together
All active pages will have a footer: Copyright Streetgreens 2025
Head element of each page should have a page title
One and only one stylesheet
Comment your code whenever possible
Bonus!! – Add a favicon – look up if you don’t know what this is
Add to your folder a swatch for your color palette
Add to your folder a wireframe of all your codeable pages (index, giftcard,order)

Custom Fonts will make your site look really nice!

As always, validate your html and css

11:00 Unity – Game Dev – RollerBall

The last time we visited Rollerball, we added coin collection, played with the skybox and learned a bit about prefabs. We also added audio so that when the coin is collected, a sound is played.

Let’s continue with the development of our game and add in a particle system. Basically, when we run into a coin, we want a particle effect to play.

There are many ways to make this process happen. We’ll add the particle system to our Player. When the player runs into a coin, a burst of particles will play. We’ll need the following code added to the player movement script or we could create a separate script for particles:

//Variables
private ParticleSystem particles;

void Start()
{
 
    particles = GetComponent<ParticleSystem>();
}

private void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
{
    if (other.CompareTag("coin"))
    {
     
        particles.Play();
    }
}

Next, it would be nice to have the level reset if we fall off the platform so we don’t have to start and stop the game each time. Let’s build that too. We’ll add this script to the player.

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;

public class ResetLevel : MonoBehaviour
{
    public float fallThreshold;

    
    void Update()
    {
        if(transform.position.y < fallThreshold)
        {
            SceneManager.LoadScene(SceneManager.GetActiveScene().buildIndex);
        }
    }
}

11:30 – 11:55 Visitors – Last Day

Visitors today – 4 minute speed rotations. Showcase what your team is working on for SkillsUSA and show them around your project, work process and division of labor. Rotations will be quick. Last chance to sell the program. We’ll rotate or move to the right every four minutes. Help your visitors find their next location.
