ePortfolio Updates

Please don’t forget that ALL of your work should be updated to your ePortfolio as you complete it. It’s part of each assignment grade as well as an end-of-6-weeks grade.

  • Make sure it is going on the correct page, add a new one if necessary.
  • Newest posts go at the top!
  • Each post has:
    1. Title of the Challenge/Assignment
    2. Questions/Answers
    3. Completed image or link to the completed assignment

Comp Sci – make sure your spiral is getting updated with each lesson!

Today starts the final 6 weeks of the year and with that your “Free Choice” Unit.

Free Choice DOES NOT EQUAL Free Day!!! It means that you get to choose what software you’d like to work with. There are some stipulations…

  1. If you choose to start a new piece of software, ALWAYS start with challenge #1 and work your way down so that you don’t miss the basics.
  2. If you choose to go back to a software that you didn’t finish all of the challenges in, check your ePortfolio to see where you left off and start there.
  3. If you want to work with software that you HAVE completed everything…
    1. Check out the project challenge for other choices
    2. Come up with your own project idea based on something you’ve seen online – get approval from me before you start
    3. Ask me for ideas
  4. You must be working each and every day! It will affect your grade if you are not.

Grading: You must turn in 8 minor and 3 major grades each six weeks. Half should be completed by the Progress Report date.

I’ll be adding more challenges as we go.

True Grit

It doesn’t matter where you started, but how you finish that matters!

Several of you are really working hard to bring your grades up. Let’s keep working hard & finish strong. The finish line is just around the corner!

2.5 more days of the 5th six weeks!

32 and 2 half school days left till summer!!!

Computers 1-14

Some work has been done a few times to try and make your computers run better.

Please make sure you let me know if you are experiencing lagging, programs shutting down, programs not opening, or other unexplainable phenomena.

Tick Tock

Time is running out on this six weeks!

Thursday is the final day of the grading period. I was told that we would have periods 4 – 7 on the half day. So 1 – 3, Wednesday is your last day. I’ll have tutorials every morning next week for those of you who need the extra time.

Please make the most of your time!!! Put your phones away and get to work!
