Learning Opportunities

  1. Project 3 (Due 1-10) (5 class days total)
    1. If I have not told you your rubric proposal was approved, DO NOT assume it has been approved. Most were not.
    2. If not, you will be using a program in class called Inkscape to design a school logo.
    3. Rubric:
      1. ► Logo must consist of only the school’s colors. (Blue and White are the school colors. Black counts as a color for this project, don't use it.)
      2. ► Logo background must be transparent.
      3. ► Logo graphic should relate in some way to the school mascot (Falcon).
      4. ► Logo must be saved as both an SVG file and exported as a 600x600 PNG file.
    4. Inkscape Logo Sample Tutorial
    5. Save And Export in Inkscape
    6. Good source for free to use .svg files:
      1. Public Domain Vectors .org
    7. BACK YOUR WORK UP IN GOOGLE DRIVE!
      1. "All my files are gone without a trace" was not a valid excuse before and this will not change moving forward.
  2. Exit Ticket (Auto-posted to Google Classroom at 3:40pm.)

    1. What did you accomplish in class today while working towards completing Project 3? (A lack of progress will result in a lack of a positive grade.)
  3. HOMEWORK

    2. 01-06: Revise your rubric for re-submission on Wednesday.
    3. 01-08: If needed, revise your rubric for re-submission on Friday. There will be no additional chances to submit a rubric proposal.
