We continued with our classroom culture activity with a discussion about organizational culture and how important it is when seeking employment to find an organizational that has a culture that fits their needs.
Students took their keyboarding unit test today.
We also started our classroom culture scavenger hunt activity and we will culminate this activity tomorrow with a writing assignment tomorrow. Students reviewed keyboarding on Quizziz. The unit test will be tomorrow.
We continued to review keyboarding basics with a Kahoot and students were told that their theory test on Keyboarding will be on Monday.
We started our lesson on keyboarding basics emphasing the importance of proper ergonomics and why proper keyboarding skills are important for any job or career. Being able to keyboard well also will help students with higher education, i.e. high school and post secondary education.
Today we played Kahoot to review what we have been talking about as far as what this class is all about. Students also got to play in teams so that they could get to know each other better.
Students continued to practice their downloading and uploading skills with two assignments, Learn to Download, Save and Submit and Three Things in Word. Both are formative assessments.
They also learned how to email me through Schoology in case they needed to ask me questions or ask me to go back and grade any late work. All students were asked to take a 1 min and a 3 min typing test so that I could have a baseline of where they are starting their keyboarding growth journey. Students learned how to submit their work through Schoology to be graded. They also received a syllabus which they need to sign and have their parent/guardian sign too. Syllabus is due 8/11 for a grade.
Students were shown how to also email me through Schoology. Students were able to do their warms up today on Schoology and began typing lessons on typing.com. We also reviewed how they would be graded for keyboarding.
I also reviewed my expectations for their behavior and what their work session would be for tomorrow for the substitute teacher as I will be out for training tomorrow.
Students were reminded that being on any website other than Schoology or using the link to typing.com through Schoology would be considered off task and will warrant a minor infraction. Phone calls will be made home for minor infractions. Repeated mis-use of the computers will result in loss of computer use and all work will have to be done on paper. |
