January 30

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a good weekend! I’ve submitted the class list to be added to Moodle, the website we’ll be using. Until I get the confirmation that we’re all set, we’ll continue to work on warm ups and typing exercises. When you have finished the warm up today, you may explore other news articles or news sites, or you may begin working on Mavis Beacon, focusing on the lessons, not just the games.
Be reminded that you lose participation points when you are caught on YouTube, Facebook, and similar sites. You may listen to music on a site like www.grooveshark.com that does NOT have videos. If music starts to interfere with your ability to complete your work or stay on task, you will lose that privilege.
Warm Up:

Click on this link for www.cnn.com and read or scan one article from each of the following categories: U.S., Business, Tech, and Sports. When you have finished, tell me a brief summary of whichever article you found most interesting and why. The ability to scan different news websites for interesting articles will be very useful as we complete different activities throughout the semester.
