Hi all,

Here are your plans for Thursday & Friday.  Please show respect to your guest teacher each day.  Use your time wisely. I’ll see you all tomorrow. If any students come in needing tech repair, please refer them to the library for service. Make it a great day!

Basic Plan all Periods

5. P2, 5, & 6 - Animate your Name Project
1. Continue working on animating your name using the Scratch tutorial
2. .  DIY Projects

6. P4 - Individual projects - Students will be working on one of their individual projects below.  There is no student moving during class time. Voice level is 1. Students may only help the student sitting next to them in a voice level 1 (whisper).  Students need to raise their hand if they need you. Anyone causing a disruption, acting disrespectful to others, or off task must have their name logged in on your notes.  
1. 3D racecar in Tinkercad
2. Build Video Game in Scratch
7. 35 min - Work on projects - detailed above
1. Guest teacher - Students will not be collaborating today.  They will be creating some unique project so you will need to move around the classroom and ask students about their projects.  THIS IS CRUCIAL FOR GOOD CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT!!!!!
8. Done with Project - Students can do these activities when complete with project and posting on their blog
1. DIY ACTIVITIES

Blogger	Modify your blogs themes, colors, and layout
Gamestarmechanic	Great game design website.  Sign in, use the year 2004 for registering, select “Get Started” until you get to the “Quest” and click on that.
Tinkercad	Create a new project or work on an old one
Finish Preparing 3D printed ID	Use tools carefully and clean up work table
Scavenger Hunt	Keep working on the Scavenger Hunt.  Link is in the class blog

1. 1 min - Shutting down & logging out - I make all student wait at stations till all headphones, tables, and chairs are neatly arranged.  I excuse one row at a time. Do not excuse students until workspaces are clean.
1. P6 needs to put chairs up on FRIDAY!

Reminders:

• Write good, detailed, and readable reflections.  
• Email me if you have any question.
• Collaboration is helpful, socializing is distracting - Know why you are out of your seat and it cannot be to socialize.

I wish you all a good day.  See you tomorrow!

Mr. Garcia
