The Witch and The Moon story 678

Below is the link to my Scratch program that you all saw today.

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/13226194/

Your assignment is to continue the story...

What will happen to the witch as she flies higher into the atmosphere trying to get to the moon?

What obstacles will be in her way?  What other atmospheric phenomenon will she have to deal with?

What will happen when she gets to the exosphere?

You may remix my Scratch program and use the MakeyMakey.  I will leave the set-up as it is, and have another one available to use.  If you have your own MM please feel free to use it.

Any other media is fine as well, electronic - Prezi, PowerPoint, etc., print, books, posters, etc.

Your story MUST be illustrated!!!

Due date for the project is this Friday November 1st... unless you choose to make a Scratch program.  Scratch programs are due November 8th.

If you create a Scratch account (free) please send me your user name so that I can follow you and help you if needed. You may also follow me and see what I am doing. Also, please share your programs as you are working on them so that I can see what you are doing and give you credit if time runs out.
My Scratch user name is    bluemoon1

Good luck!
