Name Poems/Fonts

We're going to put Scratch on hold for a bit while we prepare for next week. Today's activity deals with working with fonts. Choosing the right font for the job can have a profound effect on your overall message.

Your first task is to download the fonts_activity file from the 2014 Public Folder/Digital Literacy.

Next, we will be choosing creative fonts to publish your name poems with either Pages or Comic Life.

Scratch/Weebly

We have two tasks for today.

1. Learning about Weebly, a website building tool you may use for your History Day project.
2. Completing your Scratch is Going Green Project Proposal.

Note : if you need an idea for your Scratch project, this website is an excellent resource.

Once you complete your Scratch To Do List, you will begin working on a project proposal for your Scratch is Going Green project. The goal of the project is to use Scratch to create an interactive story promoting environmental awareness. This proposal should be presented to Mr. Madson for approval before you commence work on the project. Below are some links to get you started.
