Learning Log - Oct. 7th, 2012

What we did:

For the first twenty minutes of the block, we were given silent reading time to read our novels. After that, we partnered into groups of 2 or 3 and got the Macbook laptops to add new categories, menus and pages to our fhlearn e-Portfolio sites. 

         

Why we did it:

 The main objective of uploading our work to our fhlearn ePortfolios is in case we ever lose any of our work, we have the proof that it was completed online. This will also help us stay more organized for future projects.        

How this is useful:

By learning about how to create menus, pages and categories on Wordpress, this will benefit us in other classes where we need to add these to our fhlearn sites. 

Also, we now know that we can upload our work from other classes to our e-Portfolios in the event that we lose any of our work or projects.

Homework:

Our weekend homework is to create these categories and menus for our fhlearn ePortfolios. If you forget how to do so, re-watch the video on how to do so.  

If you have not done so already, finish your Pathways notes and continue working on your Genius Hour projects and logging your process. 

Tips:

We need to finish our novels in about two weeks so start reading; don't push everything to the last minute! If you are having any difficulty with the menus on fhlearn, ask Ms. Lees or a fellow classmate. 

Keep on checking the "Morris Ward" site for replies; there have been a few uploaded tonight!

By the way, no school Friday or Monday!  Have a great long weekend! :)
