Create Lab
Make real things: code a robot, build an interactive story, design an app, draw pixel art, publish a poster or comic, compose a beat, plan a design, paint in the Art Studio, animate a stop-motion film, choreograph a dance, write and rehearse a play, and practise handwriting. Work saves on this device, you can share it with a link, and if you are in a class you can hand it in to your teacher.
