What's Going On? January 8th through January 12th

 Thought for the Week

App Development

We will start off this week by talking about "Property Wrappers".  We will talk about the use of @State, @Binding, and @ObservableObject in order to share data between different screens in our app and within different files.  Once this is complete, students will work on our last app of the year -- Word Play.  This is a "Mad-Libs" style app that prompts our user to enter a word and then enters them into a story.  Once students are finished with our final app, they will have time to learn something new with the "App Feature" final project.  

AP Computer Science Principles

This week, students will have the first three class days to wrap up their game summatives.  Our summatives are due on Wednesday.  Students are programming a variety of games including Yahtzee, BlackJack, and Uno.  Once students have finished their partner programming, they are responsible for individually analyzing their code to talk about its purpose, function, and more.  During our final days of the semester, we will spend time reviewing for our first semester exam.

Looking Ahead: Exam Schedule

We have a little bit of time left in the semester before our exams, but they are right around the corner.  Check out the schedule below:
