6th Grade Technology Class At LV
By: Tony Adriansen
Typing Web
- Typing Web really helps you improve your typing skills because we did it every class.
- The first thing we did every class is type for five minutes.
- I highly recommend this program because there are different levels of typing that you can start at to improve your skills right away.
iTrailer
- In the iTrailer project, we chose a topic to make a movie trailer on.
- It was fun for me because we got to make our trailer about anything we wanted, so I had fun coming up ideas for the project.
- Doing the trailer also helped me learn how to use the app iMovie in different ways.
Haiku Deck
- In the Haiku Deck presentation, we got to present our dream job to the class using the Haiku Deck app.
- It wasn't easy for me, because we had to go up to the entire class and present all about the job that I wanted.
- Using the app was beneficial for me because I have never heard of the app before the presentation, but after using it, I felt like I new it like the back of my hand.
Explain Everything
- In the Explain Everything project, we had to use the Explain Everything app to explain how to do a math problem.
- We had a choice for which problem we wanted to do, so you could use a more difficult one, or an easier problem.
- I liked the project because we got to learn more about the app.
Career Locker
- Career Locker allows you to browse through occupations, colleges, and more to decide what you want to do when you grow up and where you want to go to school.
- You can take assessments to help narrow down what job you want to occupy yourself with later on.
- I liked Career Locker because you got to see what kind of person you are and what your dream job is and that your job can change later on in life.
Coding
- In Coding, we followed the instructions to learn how to code in a simpler way than the actual letters.
- It made it more fun than regular coding because there were different themes that you could code.
- Personally, Coding wasn't my favorite unit because to me, it gave you too many hints on how to complete the coding.
