Hello Everyone!
I hope you all had a great weekend. Here is some information for Monday. I will be out as I am helping interview our next vice principal for Rio Vista.
This will be our last week of keyboarding. You will have your final keyboarding test on Thursday. Keep practicing this week.
Seating charts will be out on Tuesday for all classes.
Periods 3, 4, & 5 will be working on drones and more starting on Tuesday. Use today's activity to get an idea of the basic coding needed to drive a machine.
Period 6 will be starting to code using this Mars Rover Simulation. We'll start our coding unit on Tuesday
Period 7 will be working on their challenges.
Make it a great day you all! I have some great prizes to give away to all of those who do well on the Mars simulator. Make sure to take a screenshot of your best score.
There will be Rootbeer floats on Friday for all of those who do well and don't get your name on the Guest Teacher's notes regarding behavior issues.
