Welcome to 8th Grade Computer Apps!

Tuesday, February 16/Thursday, February 18
​DUE (T/F class end of class on Friday, February 19; M/TH class end of class Monday, February 22)

You will be working on Stop Motion videos using Google slides for the next 2 class periods. Since this is on slides, you CAN work on this outside of class if needed on your chromebooks. Create something that is interesting to you - watch the example videos first and read through the directions. The deadlines will be firm as you are able to do this on your own time. :)

Today you will finish up/work on your Melonhead. Some of you may finish up. If you do, please either TYPE on Nitrotype/typing.com NOT games on typing.com OR you can mess around with photos you find online in photoshop, cut out objects, move them around, etc. I will be back Thursday to answer any questions. I know there are quite a few great resources in your class who are almost done/figured out how to use the tools towards the end. They correctly outlined the bowtie pasta (You will need to follow the directions exactly - press the button/select/deselect when the directions tell you to), used the tools while holding down shift simultaneously to select the bunch of green onions and parsley. Just take your time and read the directions. REMEMBER, CTRL Z (press control then Z) will let you "go back/undo". See you Thursday!!!

Today you will work on the Christmas Goodie Spreadsheet. Follow the directions in the Word Document below and view my example. Use your own Goodie Names (look up ideas), your own data numbers and create a graph for each as described on the word document! This assignment is super short - if you work on it in class it can be done in one class period, however, due to the number of students who are out of school, there is a STRICT Sunday at 5pm deadline. Assignments will not be accepted after this time without discussion prior. :) 
NEXT WEEK: DECEMBER 14-17 will be FULL BAND PRACTICE. Those in class will have a study hall. Friday, DECEMBER 18 and Monday, DECEMBER 21 we will do a quick Christmas Activity before Christmas break!
