Hour Of Code

I played Moana Hour of Code. I played it for 30 minutes and got to level 15. You had to move Moano in a boat across the ocean to fish. Then she got to the dock and fought off starfish and coconuts. Also you had to cut a rope. You use the site to play games.

Season 2 Episode 7

Task: The task was to create a dog service in Central Park and perform the task. Whoever made the most money won the task. One group washed dogs while the other group gave dogs massages.

Leaders and Winner: The leader of Mosaic was Wes and the leader of Apex was Jennifer. Apex won the task. Apex earned $307.41 and Mosaic earned $122.12. The reward was a meeting with Mark Bloomberg.

Fired: Wes, Andy and Stacy were brought to the board room. Stacy was fired because she blamed everyone and wasted time.

Reason I liked it: I liked the episode because I thought it was fun to see what task they would create for dogs. They washed dogs and also gave the dogs massages.
