Happy 2020!A new year and a new quarter!
I wish you many blessings for the coming year. I am thankful that I have your energetic, vibrant, beautiful children in class. This class is very engaging and always providing a challenge in all they do!
This quarter we will continue our in-class exercises as we learn about the history of computers. We will create a timeline for development of the computer. Students have a timeline handout to reference for the packet worksheets. As our project at the end of the quarter, students will look up events in the history of computers, locate pictures, cite the pictures and create a picture timeline. Learning about the past computers always engages the students!
Below is a tentative schedule of topics and events. Of course interruptions in the quarter always occur. I will update as issues arise
Assuming no interruptions to the schedule, we will follow dates below.- Week of January 6: Set up binder for 3rd qtr, return all graded work and discover the timeline! If a student misses today, he/she must meet with me to get the packet and handouts for the new quarter!
- Week of January 13: Early adding machines (abacus) to DaVinci's adding device. Assignment: we will have an in-class worksheet. If a student misses this day, he/she must get the sheet and complete it by January 26.
- Week of January 20: MLK Monday holiday.
- Week of January 27: Students will study Jacquard's punch card to Hollerith's punch card. If a student misses this day, he/she must get the sheet and complete it by February 10.
