All classes will begin today's time block by taking this short ten question quiz about Mardi Gras to see how much you learned in the past two days.
6th: Today's tech talk word is HARDWARE. When finished with the technology notebook you should go to this site. As a class we are going to read about the Outer Hardware of the computer. After our discussion you are going to complete a handout about what we read.
7th: Today we are going to begin our first in-class assignment which is to create a flyer for a fictional event. The purpose of a flyer is to inform the public of something e.g. an event or grand opening. The event you are creating a flyer for is the grand opening of the new store "Insane Eddie's". Insane Eddie's is a new store that is going to sell nothing but big screen tv's at great prices. The program that we are going to use for this assignment is MS Publisher which is specifically used to create publications like flyers. Here are some examples of flyers for various grand openings. Here is the rubric for this assignment.
8th: Today we are going to resume our discussion about what makes a website a good one. Revisit this site and look back over some of the information. Use that information to select one site from the following pages. In MS Word past the URL from the site you think is a good one and write a short paragraph about why you selected the site that you did. When finished open up this Inspiration web which you will use as a template for your website. Save the web to your W drive and begin working on filling in the information.

Today we are going to start class with a quick five question quiz. When finished, you can use any extra time to read articles on the web. When everyone is done we will continue with our discussion of copyright and continue on to David Pogue's "The Generational Divide in Copyright Morality". If you brought in your packet signed please put it into the bin on the back table.
8th: Good job with the webs yesterday in class. One thing that I picked up on was that some of you are giving up to easily when you're looking for the information. You cannot wait for knowledge to come to you, you have to obtain it. To start today we are going to take a short five question quiz. Follow the directions closely and you will do fine. After the quiz, we are going to check out some of the websites that were made by students here at SMS as well as some sites which were put together by students from another school. Ultimately, our goal today is to determine what makes one website better than another. If you brought back the packet I gave you yesterday please put it into the bin on the back table for five points on today's quiz.
