RV Computer Science, Robotics, Science, & ELD Week 11/18 - 22/2024

 Hello Everyone!

Welcome to Trimester 2!

We will be working on various projects in class while I welcome a new Computer Science group in Period 3.

The Tim Burton Fall Dance is this Friday to grab your friend and get your boogie on!  You can try to learn Wednesday's dance from the show Wednesday Addams.

Please email your teachers to let them know if you will be out any day this week.

Check out the Leonids meteor shower tonight.  Find out more info in the What's Up in the November Skys video in the Space Out Friday sections at the end of this blog.

RV Computer Science, Robotics, Science, and ELD Week 11/12 - 15/2024

  Hello Everyone!

What a week!  I hope all of you and your families are ok.  I know of at least one teacher at Rio Mesa who lost his family's home in the Mountain fire.  Very tragic.  

It is ok to not fully understand what happened in the Mountain Fires.  It all happened so quickly.  Here is a 12-minute video explaining why wind-driven fires are so dangerous.


Reminder, no candy in class.  If you choose to eat it outside, please throw your trash in the trash cans.

Trimester 1 is ending soon, November 15.  Make sure you are turning in any late work before the 14 for all of my classes.

Make it a wonderful week as we head closer to Thanksgiving.
