RV Computer Science, Robotics, and ELD Week 1/29 - 2/2/2024

Hello Everyone!

ALL CLASSES - I'm out today for a family emergency.  

You have an End of the Month (January) Keyboarding test to complete, reflect on, and post in your portfolio today.  When you finish the January KB Test, work on any missing assignments.  More detailed info in your class section of this blog.

If you finish early, finish any unfinished work like your portfolio or missing Keyboarding tests.

PUBLISH YOUR PORTFOLIO POST!!!!!  I WILL BE GRADING THEM TODAY

Thank you for doing your job, being respectful to whoever is in the class with you, and doing your part to make the class work well.

Remember, if you act out and get your name on the guest teacher's notes to me, you will earn a lunch/principal detention when I return.  Make choices that help you.

Mr. G

As the first month of the year comes to a close, it is a clear time to reflect.

Academically, are you where you want to be at this time?

Regarding grades, are they where you want them to be?

Your social relationships, are they what you want them to be?

Think about it for a minute.

Make it the week you want it to be.
