THIS VIDEO EXPLAINS THE EXPECTATIONS FOR THE DAY!

Our 1st Quarter will focus on media creation, while or 2nd Quarter will focus more on coding.

Regardless of the lesson, FouloisTech.info should be your destination every time you come into class. This space will be used to provide announcements, lessons, and other resources.

    1. Students will be able to:
      1. Experiment with standard block-based programming actions such as: clicking, drag and drop, etc.

  5. Today's Lesson: Code.org Lesson 3: Happy Maps
    1. We will begin by using Clever to log into Code.org.
      1. Only Code.org logins done through Clever will show the work that has been assigned.
    2. The only lesson that should be visible is the one for today: Lesson 2. It will have 7 Levels to complete, though each of them is relatively short in scope.
    3. Level 1 is a video that we will watch together in class.
    4. Grading Rubric:
      1. Students earn 1 point for each level turned BRIGHT GREEN by completing it.
      2. Pale green Levels are incomplete and therefore not counted.

      4. FREE PLAY Levels are rewards for completing the work and are not graded.
    5. This is an IN-CLASS assignment, NOT HOMEWORK. Please stay on task to complete this work by the end of class!
