In class this week, students will continue to work on our Activity 1.2.2: Catch a Turtle Leaderboard.  Students will start to manage multiple files and learn to read and write to an external text file in order to maintain permanent memory storage to keep track of the best performances in our "Catch a Turtle" game.

App Development

During our class on Monday, students will spend a little bit of time investigating UIViews.  The idea of this UIView is to keep track of several objects together as a unit.  We can then learn to manage our views and place them in a specific order within our storyboard.  Once we have wrapped up this concept, students will begin working on our second end-of-unit app challenge, Multiply.  For this summative project, students will work on making a simple calculator that allows a user to enter in two numbers and perform some mathematical operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, mod).  

Programming the Web 1

This week, students will learn about the "Box Model" in our lesson 8 content.  Students will learn how to have tighter control of spacing and learn how to better arrange elements within our pages.  Along with this lesson, students will read chapters 7 and 10 in our textbook and complete the accompanying reading guide.  Students will also complete 10 multiple choice questions to review our concepts and one book tutorial-based web project.
