Link to the project or level: [replace with link to the curriculum or get the “Share” link to a project]
What I expect to happen: The word "Score: " to show up.
What actually happens: No text is showing
What I’ve tried:

  1. I’ve reviewed the code many times.
  2. I checked the sample code for the teacher in the lesson
2

In the function of where it shows the score, the student made the coordinates have 4 different values.

function showScore() {
  fill("black");
  textSize(30);
  text("Score: ",10, 30);
}

I have fixed it to the 2 values instead of 4.

I hope this has helped!

@jennifer.hemry,

On line 52, the last parameter of the text box is the height of the text box. 20 isn’t a large enough number for the text you are using, but when I change it to 100, the text box is large enough and the text displays!

Good luck!

Mike
