Good Morning Info-tech 9.  I am away today due to illness. I hope very much that you all had a wonderful and relaxing break. Below you will find a list of instructions for what you should all be working on today. I want you all to realize that your work is due by Wednesday, April 11. That is next week and only gives you four classes.  If your work is not done. It will be registered as a 0. So please be sure to finish these projects. I also want to have us play around with the spirobots next class. So please use this time today constructively.

Katelyn and Betsey and Eli: you are working on a short film on Bullying. You may use the hallway in front of the class but no wandering. You can also do a few still scenes with Betsey talking on the phone to her friend. And then you will need the scene where it has gone too far. If one of you is away then you can create a trailer on iMovie either about their movie or one you make up. Due date: Wednesday April 11. You should send your clips via gmail accounts to the computers in the class and upload their films to edit in iMovie.

Group two: Jaiya, Anthony and Joe.  You three need to finish your film asap.  You should now be editing clips and putting the movie together.  One can work on finding the right sound effects, while another could look for the right fading effects and the other working on putting the film together. If you need more scenes schedule them with the other group. Yes, you can grab iPads from the library if you need – please inform the sub first.

Ash: you should be working on your last poster in Adobe. If you need help getting started ask Amaya for help.

Amaya: you are working on a movie trailer. Please help Ash if she needs help getting started on Adobe.

Rik: First redo your link to your scratch game - it does not work. Please check it first. You are working on creating a music list. Check the blog for the criteria of the mini passion music and movie trailer. Ask either Eli or Amaya if you are struggling with the music program

Andrew:  First please post your link to your Scratch game on your weebly assignment page. And post your GIF there as well. I have posted how to make a Frogger game under the Infotech 10/11/12. I think you will really enjoy making this game. Follow the instructions. They are clear, short and easy to follow.  Good luck.

Joshua: You will have to get your Weebly up and running. Ask the sub to give you your password. You can work on your biography and 5 things that are unique about you.  This Weebly must be set up before you can start a project. If you cannot figure out how to get on the Weebly. Please do these things on a word doc and we can copy and paste them next class.  Please have this done by the end of today.  It will only take a few sentences.

Have a nice day and I will see you all Friday……hopefully!
