Hi there! Welcome to the Official Scratch FreeRice Group Studio! Here you can talk about all things FreeRice, as well as participate in activities!
✄ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
Don't know what FreeRice is? It's a great game that donates grains of rice to countries in need every time you get a question correct. Head to freerice.com and consider making an account! Don't worry, it's run by the official UN World Food Programme and it's a completely safe website for children. There's no unmoderated chatting, either! They get the money to give the rice through ads that they show on the page as you do questions.
At the same time, you can learn and build knowledge in a range of topics, with a difficulty level that automatically adjusts as you play!

If you'd like to curate the studio, simply ask! You may introduce yourself with your freerice username and grains donated in the comments ^^
✄ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
Only add related projects, please! Any unrelated projects will be removed.
Also, please don't bother managers to update the desc - there aren't a whole lot of us and we can't be online 24/7!
✄ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
So what can you do here?
Well, aside from chatting, you can race people to get grains, compete for leaderboard ranks, answer the question of the week, complete the weekly activity, celebrate milestones or add suggestions!
✄ ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
To race, you can just leave a comment asking if anyone wants to race! There are lots of ways, but the main way is to individually time yourselves getting a set amount of grains, then see who had the shorter time. You could also set an amount of time and see who can get the most grains in that time.
