RV Computer Science, Robotics, & ELD Week 5/6 - 10/2024

  Hello Everyone!

Testing is all week long in period 5.  Get some good sleep, eat some good food, and do your best on the test.  Also, do your best in the testing class.

You all have the Create a Working Catapult assignment in Tinkercad to do after you finish any other important work.

Computer Science P5 class - Mr. Martinez will be sitting in for me all week.  He has specific information for you as you finish testing.  You may not use the PCs until ALL students are done testing.  

Put your electronics including your phone and/or smart watch in your backpack.  Backpacks need to be neatly placed along the wall under the window.  Keep the isle ways clear.

You have 2 assignments - 
  • Drones In Industry - Use the shared google slideshow.  Work on only your slide.  If there is a problem, I will remove you and you'll need to create your own slideshow.   You can create your own slideshow, work on it, and then transfer the info to the shared class slideshow later.
  •  Create a working Catapult - Tinkercad - create a working catalog that can do the following:
    • launch and object forward
    • knock over items in the front of the catapult
    • not fall apart each time it is launched
    • Have fun!
