What's Going On? October 28th through October 30th

Shortened Week!

This week, students will only have school Monday through Wednesday.  This means that school will begin at 7:35am each day!  Monday will be a regular Monday-style schedule with AE, Tuesday students will attend each of their classes without AE and on Wednesday, we will have an early release with students seeing each of their classes for a shortened period of time.























App Development


Now that we have finished up our Multiply summative app, we will move into our next unit. Students will start off the week with our pre-unit hackwich, Commission.  After this, students will spend the rest of the time for the week learning about app developer's documentation and some more principles of design.



AP Computer Science Principles

This week, students will continue our study of the Python programming language.  Students will spend more time with variables, writing functions, and getting user input.  This is one of the options that students will have when designing their "Create" Performance Task that will be submitted to the AP Board in April.

Speaking of the AP test, time is running out to register for the AP test while avoiding the late fee.  Students must register and may for the exam by November 8th.  Students who are eligible for free and reduced lunch may apply to have the fee waived.  Please visit our Total Registration website to register.  Also, be sure to declare your intention for the AP exam on the AP Central website.  Complete instructions can be seen here:

Programming the Web 1

This week, students will begin their work on our midterm exam.  Students will have time in class to recreate a four-page website based on images.  During this exam, students may use their notes, Google, past assignments, etc.  However, students must not work together on this project.  All work for our midterm MUST BE COMPLETED IN CLASS.  Students who need additional time to complete their midterm project may schedule additional time in the lab with me.
