6- Word Games With BOLTAdvanced Block1. I can define string variables as nouns, adjectives, and verbs.
2. I can understand how a program uses functions to keep code organized.
3. I can use the orientation sensor to affect how a program executes.		1B-AP-12: Modify, remix, or incorporate portions of an existing program into one’s own work, to develop something new or add more advanced features.
2-AP-13: Decompose problems and subproblems into parts to facilitate the design, implementation, and review of programs.
