Friday October 12

Last day to get October Scholastic book orders in will by Monday, October 15.

8-23

  • I will accept Vertigo Field Trip forms on Monday, October 15 as there are still a number of you that have not handed them in. If money is a concern then please come and talk to me as we would like everyone to be able to attend.
  • Continue to work on your Middle Ages project. At this point I think that you should be just finishing, if not finished your research and that you should be starting to plan out your presentation. Please make sure to check your rubric and the assignment sheet that was handed out to ensure that you are doing everything that is requested of you. As decided by the class, presentations will be on Thursday, October 18.

9-27

  • Editorial / Political Cartoons are due on Tuesday October 16.

Robotics

  • I encourage some of you to explore Alice further and if interested also try out Scratch. There are many tutorials online for Scratch including some in Atomic Learning.
  • The groups you selected to work on the Lego RCX Robotics kits are as follows:
    • Mary, M.E., Anna – Kit #3
    • Erik, Jordan, Jacob, Armin – Kit #6
    • Amy, Sophie, Jamie – Kit #9
    • Liam, Keilan, Parker, Harshob – Kit #7
    • Matt, Marko – Kit #8
    • Gabe, Felicity – Kit #4
    • Yumin, Mark, Hans, Rohit – Kit #5
    • Lewis, Justin, Winston, Yufeng – Kit #1
    • Chris, Edwin, Harry, Allan – Kit #2
    • If your name is not on the list it is either because you have decided to focus more on the programming side of things rather than the design and implementation or you were away when the groups were made. Either way we will figure things out at the next class.
