During the length of this semester (i.e. Until May 06) - I can easily manage to squeeze at least 6 hours a day (due to classes in the daytime) on weekdays and 8-10 Hours a day on weekends. In total around 45 hours a week.

My answer - 
    
Among kids learning mathematics and taking up mental ability exercise is usually associated with anything but fun. But learning can be a lot easier if we move from learning to playing. When we play we level up , when we level up we get interested , when we are interested we grow , when we grow - that's when we learn.

Also more game developers who like this idea of making learning fun will be attracted towards this activity and the Sugar Labs Community as they can dedicate their innovative ideas for teaching based games to such activities.

"To be a real part of deployment, Sugarizer should provide the same rich experience of pedagogic tools than the Sugar platform. Bringing to it a rich set of learning activities including some famous one like Falabracman and Implode will fill the gap between Sugar and Sugarizer and give more luck to new users and school to use Sugar as pedagogic platform."

"Your proposal, if implemented, will enhance Sugar and Sugarizer to make important educational and fun opportunities available to our users."

I will be writing a blog frequently about my work which can be a good tracking record of the project and will share it with mentors if required. Also I'll be sharing each game on a Github Page for reviews which can help in tracking my progress.

Nothing as such. Just looking forward to work on this project. Life is good.

I think what sugarizer lacks as a fun to learn software is a collection of educational games. This project has potential to make Sugarizer an even better place to learn for children than it already is. I  will try my best to make this activity the best attraction Sugarizer has among children.

Really looking forward to work on this project for the summer. Life is good.
