February 24

Good morning class! Now here’s something new and weird and strange! DON’T DO YOUR WARM-UP FIRST! Go to Mavis Beacon for the first 15 minutes of class and practice typing. Then, do the warm-up! When you are done, we will continue to work on our own on our Computer Apps Semester 2 moodle site. You will click on Eastern High School, and click on Horner’s Technology Apps Sems 2 to go to our site. This is the link that you will follow to your daily assignments after you finish your Warm Ups. Your Student ID will be your login and your password will be changeme when you first access Moodle.

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:

Go to www.typingtest.com and do the 2 minute test for The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Take the test 2 times and report your best score. This score will be recorded in my gradebook to be compared with your periodic timed tests to chart your progress. Good luck!

Assignment:

On our Computer Apps Semester 2 moodle site, you should have finished modules 1.2.0 and 1.2.2. Both activities were due last Thursday. As you move through the modules, be sure to read each lesson completely. Not all lessons will require that you submit something. As you work, read carefully and go back as necessary when you have an assignment to complete.
