6 Grade Technology at Lineville!
By Gloria Collins-Kapla
Typing Web
- Work 5 minutes on Typing Web in the begging of class each day.
- Has increased my typing skills, and is fun and challenging at the same time.
- Have to have the Intermediate course done by the semester.
Career Locker
- Mrs.V comes in class and teaches you about all different careers.
- You pick the top three careers you would like to do, to find your interests you take tests and play games.
- Learn about different colleges you would like to attend.
Haiku Deck
- You pick your interest/ career you would like to do in the future.
- Make a presentation about that career and you present it to the class.
- I found the unit very fun because you can really personalize the presentation to make it more how you like it.
iTrailer
- You pick a topic you would like to make a short trailer about.
- Try to make the trailer like a commercial for a movie.
- Only get to use your own personal photos.
Explain Everything
- You pick one from ten different math problems, then you make an Explain Everything for that problem.
- The goal is to try to be like a teacher explaining the math problem.
- I found this unit fun because you got to do a voice over, which was cool.
Coding
- In order to get a three for your grade you have to have stages six and seven completed.
- Coding is basically trying to solve a complex puzzle on a computer.
- This unit was very fun because it was challenging for me.
