Lesson 5 Feedback

@amelinagzz - Feedback on Intro to Spritekit

Check-in - I like this a lot, I would encourage you to put these throughout more of your lessons. Not all of them, but keep them regular enough so that people get a chance to review

Nodes (Sprites): you describe what a Node is, but not what a scene is. Give that a 1 sentence description

Node Properties: Instead of having a giant wall of text, I would take each property with its name + description, and add a GIF showing how changing that property affects the Sprite. It would be a slide per property to avoid crowding (though maybe you could get 2 on a slide)

Creating a Sprite: Throw some images in there, you're building something entirely visual, show a picture of the sprite you create in the example

Running Actions: Show a video/image/GIF of this in action

Combining Actions: Shows GIF examples of each of these groupings, rather than just the diagram

Activity: No explanation or README for this activity. I have no idea what to do unless you or a TA is telling me. Make this more accessible by providing some direction/guidance

Starting our First Game: Same as above, though there are some directions given on the second slide. Provide a bit more context here, or at least build out a README for the starter code.
