What we learned today...
Each month we do what is called Individual Problem Solving. Students are asked to solve problems which require you to think in patterns, time, logic, etc. They are difficult and rarely does anyone get 8 out of 8, but their goal is to improve each week. The questions are similar each month to one another and we try and discuss each problem to learn from our mistakes.

I've told students if they are able to use their Chromebooks at home or have access to Google Chrome, then I would like them doing one of the typing programs for at least 10 minutes a night 3 nights a week. I will send a typing log home with them so they can track it.
