Every week there is a new extra credit assignment on the board and the students are responsible for getting that done by the due date. I don't read it to them and I don't expect it, but if you are not happy with your grade I would suggest you start looking at it. Also for the rest of the semester the Extra Credit for Math and Computer classes are posted all over in the classroom and the students need to make sure they do them. Again this is your responsiblity not mine.
Digitools 9 kids finished Chapter 5 today (they had until 3pm to turn everything in) They will take the test on Monday. All work will be graded and either in the grade box, or the graded work folder on their student drive. Digital Media is working on their Prezi. Digitools 7 will finish and submit their Letter/Memo Project by Wednesdsay when gradeds will be posted. Applied Math finished their Factoring work and will start a new chapter on Monday. I am hoping to have everything graded and in the grade book for all but Digitools 7 by tonight. So the grade you see on Monday will be the grade posted for Midterm.
Test on Factoring will be tomorrow if a student doesn't finish I want them in during Academic Friday time to finish, this way it is all fresh and we don't have a Sat/Sun forgetfulness problem. Plus that also means no homework.
With the 15 minute class period tomorrow I have decided that I am going to post pone the test to Monday - students will be able to work on their Chapter 5 Review Sheet and resubmit or their Chapter 5 work - also the lab will be open until 3pm if students need to work.
Digitools 7 - welcome to the Blog - we are going to do a project on Letter and Memo and the students learned today how to create Letterheads, Envelopes, and Center the Letter Vertically - Hopefully they remember. The project will be due on Tuesday the 7th and all three elements are to be submitted.
Lecture over the Chapter 5 material and the Review sheet can be found here so if you are at home you can still complete them and then submit. Test will be on Friday - if a student doesn't finish test they will finish before starting the Excel assignments.
The Digital Media class worked so hard on the Pepsi Refresh Project and we went to submitted today and got a message that said we have to wait until March 2011 - so I guess the wait is on. I really want to make sure that we get it done as they worked so hard on it - So stay tuned. We are now going to do Prezi's they are picking their own topic and will present them on Dec 13th to the class. This is something new for me so I am learning the program with them. But should be fun.
