Learning Opportunities

    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. "All my files are gone without a trace" was not a valid excuse before and this will not change moving forward.
  2. Project 4 (Due 1-21, 3 class days total)
    1. If I have not told you your rubric proposal was approved, DO NOT assume it has been approved. As of the time I'm writing this, most were not.
    2. If not, you will be using Google Sheets to create pixel art.
    3. Rubric:
      1. ► Project is a Google Sheet document where all the cells have been resized into squares.
      2. ► Project design is at least twenty-six (26) cells wide (A-Z) and ten (10) cells tall. It may be larger.
      3. ► Project design includes a background and foreground that thematically belong together. (Example: Foreground has a snowman, background is a sky filled with clouds and snowflakes.)
      4. ► Project design includes no fewer than five (5) different colors.
