Activity 2: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 12 min
Greetings, fellow space explorers! Join me on a cosmic adventure as we discover the mysteries of movement patterns in the universe. The game will be divided into 3 parts: the introductory planet, the candy kingdom planet, and the basketball planet. Each planet will have several mini challenges. Each mini challenge will have a unique gameplay mechanic linked directly to a main Learning Objective concept about movement patterns.
