Mr. Kimbley- Period 5
In my computer's class I learn how to do many things. These include how to type, create a Google document, make a free Weebly website, and much more other things. We get 5 minutes every day in this class to blog. Math is math Monday. Tuesday is science solutions. Thursday is core Concentration and Friday is free write Friday. As you might of have noticed we don’t blog on Wednesday because on Tuesdays we have double period in computers and on Wednesday we have double periods in science.
Roman Document Document In my computers class I have been working on my Roman Document. My Roman paper talks about how Rome first started to its end.
The Roman Empire was one of the biggest empires the world had ever seen. The main language spoken in Rome was Latin. The Roman built hand-made channels called aqueducts. They even built concrete roads. For this document. I used Google Docs. With Google Docs I was abale to do one the spot research, instert citations, and links to useful websites that had to do about my paper. Even though I think Google Docs. is good, I rather use Microsoft Word because I think it is a little more improved. For example sometimes Google Docs. would not show me my spelling errors, when Microsoft Word did. |
My Digital LifeThis month in my Computer's class, we worked on my Digital Life. My Digital Life is an interactive online course that teaches you many things from cyber bulling to organizing an online event. This was a fun and learning game that not only was fun but very helpful in general. I learned how to tell someone whose texting while driving how to convince to stop doing that. I also learned how to keep a social networking account safe and away from hackers. These and many other things were very useful and I learned many things that I didn’t know before.

Power Searching With GoogleIn the month of October, I participated in Power Searching with Google. Power Seaching with Google is an online course which teaches you how to search better using Google. It taught me what type of key words to enter in the query. It also taught me how to seach by filters and even by a picture.
I can connet PSWG'S online course with My Digital Life because first of all they all taught me very useful things like My Digital Life taught me how ton stay safe, and PSWG taught me how to search better with Google. |

The typing quiz was 3 minutes long. It timed us on jow many words we could type in a minute. As you can see I am not a very fast typer. That is why now I need to start practicing even more.

Spanish VerbsThis presentation is about the -AR, -ER, and -IR spanish verbs. The presentation explains with as much detail what ending to put at the end of the root word. It gives you the steps on what to add. This presentation shows you what kind of ending you would put to the root word. You can also see the GoAnimate Video about Spanish verbs below.
To make this presentation I used PowerPoint but then uploaded it on Google Drive so that I could embed it on this website. In my opinion I think that using PowerPoint was easier than a Google Presentation because I've been using PowerPoint more times than I have used Google Presentation. I think that PowerPoint is more efficient and easier because it is not to difficult to use. |
