Wednesday

Graphic Design: Nameplates are due today!!! Refer to Monday’s post for details on what you should do – I have only received 1 email this week from 1 of you. CHARACTER ILLUSTRATION is what you should work on next. Some of you had started it, but really did not grasp the details of the lesson. Go back and do it again.

Audio/Video: I’ve replied to your emails. Some of you still are not giving me a specific target audience that your commercial will address. Next you should start on the story and script – write it in Word. The commercial is 30 seconds. Read through the challenge so you know the specifics.

PAAVTC: You are working in Illustrator. Each day you need to click on this form and answer the questions. You’ll have to log in with your LCISD email address: username@students.lcisd.org . This is a grade that many of you are getting zeros on.

Computer Science: EXAM TOMORROW! This presentation will walk you through a few lessons and the activities that you and your partner should complete this week. You should be wrapping up through Lesson 8 today and studying for the exam.

Tuesday

Graphic Design: Remember that Nameplates are due tomorrow. Then you should be working on revising or starting your Character Illustrations. Review my post from Monday if you haven’t already.

Audio/Video: Half of you did not email me the work that was due yesterday. Most of you that did missed a major part of it. WHO IS YOUR TARGET AUDIENCE??? Specifically what group of people? Adults, teenage girls, teachers??? This dictates what your commercial is about. What may be funny or interesting to me won’t be to a teenager. Check your email for comments from me and re-send it. If I don’t get an email from the rest of you it will be a zero.

PAAVTC: Most of you did not fill out the form yesterday about what you were working on. This is a grade EACH AND EVERY DAY this week. Don’t forget it today!

Computer Science: Continue with the presentation in yesterday’s post. Don’t forget the exam on Thursday.

Monday

Graphic Design: Listen to my instructions! Finish nameplates & start/re-do your Character Illustration. Sara – finish the flier and email to her today!

Audio/Video: You will work through Stages 1 and 2 of the Commercial Challenge. Make sure you email me where I specify in the challenge. The Planning of the story should be completed and emailed today. Work on After Effects when you are done.

PAAVTC: Each of you should be working in the Illustrator challenges, starting with #1. At the end of each class, you need to click on this form and answer 3 questions. You’ll have to log in with your LCISD email address: username@students.lcisd.org

Computer Science: EXAM on Thursday! This presentation will walk you through a few lessons and the activities that you and your partner should complete this week.

Next Week

You won’t have access to cameras, etc. next week because I’ll be at a conference. So make sure you are taking care of that today. You will have a specific assignment to do each day that will need to be turned in for a grade.

Remember where your assigned seat is, ask me today if you don’t know. You’ll need to check this website each day for your assignments.

COMPUTER SCIENCE – Exam over Unit 1, Chapter 1 on Wednesday of next week!!!

Comp Sci

If you took your worksheet home yesterday, please turn it in to the sub now!!! Review this presentation to help you through any questions you might have – we can talk about it Wednesday.

You’ll get 2 worksheets today. The first is a Flippy-Do to help you convert from one number system to another. Complete it & the next worksheet, turn it in with your name on it. We’ll get everything in your spiral tomorrow. It will look like this…

Watch this video…

The second worksheet is practice converting numbers. You’ll need to use your Flippy-Do. You can talk it out with your neighbor as well.

Audio/Video

You don’t have access to cameras today.

You need to choose an After Effects tutorial to work on and get put on your ePortfolio. I should see a new one started for each one. There is a challenge with the list of tutorials you sent me or you can search on your own.

Course Selection

Where do I go now? You can read through the CTE Programs of Study to help you figure it out, or follow below…

  • PAAVTC – you can sign up for Graphic Design & Illustration or Audio/Video Production
  • Graphic Design & Illustration 1 – go to GDI 2
  • Audio/Video Production 1 – go to A/V 2
  • GDI 2 & A/V 2 – technically the next class is the Practicum. But you have to be able to get a job in that field which is not easy to find out here. You might consider choosing the A/V 1 if you’re in GDI 2, or GDI 1 if you’re in A/V 2.
  • CSP – you should choose Computer Science 1 PAP

Ask me if you have questions!

Progress Reports

Tomorrow is the end of the 3 weeks! You need to make sure your ePortfolio is updated with your work on the 4th 6 weeks page.
PAAVTC – you should have work updated on the Video page and Animate page if you’ve been doing some work there.

I’ll be checking ePortfolios today and tomorrow!
