5th Grade, Green’s HR, 05-30-2024

THIS VIDEO EXPLAINS TODAY'S EXPECTATIONS! (86 days until the 1st day of next school year!) (We have only 4 classes together before the end of this course.)
Today's Agenda:

  1. Announcements:
    1. No late work for 4th Quarter will be accepted after Friday, May 31st!
      1. This deadline is 2 weeks before the end of 4th Quarter. That time is needed to ensure all late work handed in before then is graded in a timely fashion.
      2. Lesson 2 was due on 4/2. Lesson 3 was due on 4/5. Lesson 4 was due on 4/11. Lesson 5 was due on 4/16. Lesson 7 was due on 4/19. Lesson 8 was due on 4/24. Lesson 9 was due on 4/29. Lesson 10 was due on 5/07. Lesson 11 was due on 5/10. Lesson 13 was due on 5/16. Coding Vocab 1 Quiz was due on 5/21. Coding Vocab 2 Quiz was due on 5/30.
  2. Today's Quiz: Coding Vocabulary 2
    1. We will complete this quiz together in class.
  3. Today's Lesson: MineTest Monster Invasion
    1. Due to the technical difficulties from last week, we are revisiting this activity again today.
    2. Today's lesson will be completed in MineTest, which I have installed on the Lab computers.
    3. To begin today's work, you will need to complete ALL missing Code.org work.
      1. The smallest unfinished Code.org assignment is worth more in SchoolMax than the MineTest activity. Prioritize your grades!
      2. If you complete your Code.org work during class today, you will have to show Mr. Smith in order to move on to the MineTest activity.
    4. Mr. Smith will show the class how to log in, and the basic rules you are expected to follow.
      1. Last class you were told to make a house you could defend against monsters. If you were unable to do this because of make-up work, a house has been provided.
      2. Today, the server will be started up in SURVIVAL mode. You'll be given an additional 5 minutes of prep time before your home's defenses will be tested.
      3. Some villagers have been added to your town! It's your job to protect as many as you can. (Hiding in your home will not save the villagers who are outside.)
      4. You MUST NOT mess with any other students. Doing so can get you banned from the server. This includes, but is not limited to:
        1. Getting in the other student's way when they are placing blocks.
        2. Destroying blocks that are part of their build.
        3. Throwing things at other students.
        4. Spawning creatures that do any of the things above.
    5. This is an IN-CLASS assignment, NOT HOMEWORK. (The MineTest server cannot be logged into outside of the computer lab.) Please stay on task to complete this work by the end of class!
