Thought for the Week
Schedule for the Week
AP Computer Science Principles
This week, students will be working on their Data Summative project. For this project, students are looking to answer a question with data. Students are able to find data from sites such as the USDA quick stats site or the data.gov site for different data sets. The students then downloaded the data as a CSV file. Using Python, students will process the data and create a graph. Based on the graph, students will draw conclusions and try to answer their questions based on the data. All summative projects will be due by the end of class on Thursday.
Once the summative project concludes, we will begin our review for the AP Exam. Please click here for a letter about the details of the AP Exam period.
App Development
This week, our focus will be on the scope of a variable and conditionals. We will talk about how we know where variables can be accessed and why. We will also talk about how we can use code to make decisions within our app. Students will have a short check-in on Thursday and we will work on a coding demo during class on Friday.

Programming the Web 1
On Monday, we will wrap up our study of the layout tools for "floating" and "positioning". Students will complete our lesson 9 review questions and wrap up the work for the lesson 9 web assignments during class on Tuesday. For the rest of the week, we will take a look at the use of "Flexbox" to control the layout of our page.
