Computer Tech Explore -  Introduction to Coding - Students continued working on self-pacing activities and learn how to code through Khanacademy.  Students will participate in activities in which they create images, animations and modify variables of existing images/animations.

Pre-Algebra - Transformations (Rotations) -   Problems 5 & 6 assigned as classwork/homework yesterday were corrected together as a whole class.  Students were given notes to show how the coordinates from a pre-image change when rotating an image 90, 180, or 270 degrees counter-clockwise.  Problems 7-12 were assigned and students had time in class to ask questions and work on the problems.  Prior to the end of class the solutions for 7-9 were given so students could verify if they were solving the rotations correctly or making errors.   HW - finish problems 10-12

8th Grade Science - Bonds and Compounds -  Students finished the web-based activity from yesterday that reviewed covalent bonds, then started the web-based activity on Ionic Bonds.  NO HW 

7th Grade Science -  Evolution-  Students were given time in class to finish the reading and answering the questions on the reading guide from yesterday which introduced Darwin and the Theory of Evolution.   NO HW
