Tuesday, August 10

Today, all classes went to the computer lab to work on PowerPoints. Students are designing PowerPoints to introduce themselves to the class.

Each PowerPoint should be a minimum of 5 slides: Intro, Family, Hobbies, Culture, and Goals. Students should use pictures whenever possible. Students should use some sort of animation for the text. Students should have some kind of background for their PowerPoint, instead of the boring plain white background.

We had a slight disruption 1st block, due to a school-wide fire drill. We had a slightly bigger disruption 2nd block, when the circuit breaker in the computer lab blew a fuse. In 2nd block, many students (about half the class, actually) had to go to the Media Center to continue working. Amazingly, though, all students managed to finish their PowerPoints!

Students will present these PowerPoints in class on Wednesday.

On a scale of 1-10 for classroom disruptions, today was a 7 (annoying but still productive).
