Week of March 8th - 12th, 2021

Please note that I am trying to keep people making good progress with the CMU CS Academy work, but I do not want it to become overwhelming.  If you discover that you cannot comfortably keep up the pace I have set, you must let me know! If you cannot complete an assignment, let me know via email ahead of time -- no later than 9 PM the evening before it's due.

You aren't required to do more than the minimal number of points for each section, but it will help you master the concepts.

Monday:
Complete at least 4 points worth of exercises from CMU section 3.1.5 by 7:30 this morning.
Continue with CMU CS Academy work today on 3.1.6 and 3.1.7. 

Tuesday:
Complete section 3.1, 'Drawing Basics': do at least 3 points worth of exercises from the CMU section 3.1.7 by 7:30 this morning.
If you've finished the CMU stuff and are looking for more,  try CodeHS. It takes a different approach which I think will complement the CMU material. Create yourself an account at https://codehs.com/go/11051, give it a try, and let me know what you think.

Wednesday:
Current Events group #1 due today:
P1: Arsh, Nicole, Nicholas D., Stavros, Demetra
P2: Fazal, Kunal, Marissa, Sophia, Madelyn, Syon
Remember to enter your topic here and be sure no one else from your period is already doing it.
Complete at least 4 points of exercises from CMU section 3.2.2 by 7:30 this morning.

Thursday:
Introduce 'Creative Task'
Complete at least 3 points worth of exercises from the CMU section 3.2.4 by 7:30 this morning.  Also do 3.2.5, 'Regular Polygons and Stars'.
Work on Unit 3 exercises: complete at least 6 points from 3.4 exercises by next Monday at 7:30 AM.

Friday:
Work on Unit 3 exercises.  When you have completed at least 6 points worth, go on to the Creative Task.
