Java Script Camp 2014: Day 4 @acadecap

7/31/2014

Welcome to Day 4 of Java Script Camp!

This morning the students began with a review from last class to clear up any questions they had and to make sure it is understood what is being taught. Afterwords, students who needed more time from yesterday finished up their work on texts and strings, while others began to work on Functions. Functions make your code more re-usable by grouping it into functions, and then make those functions accept parameters and return values.

In the afternoon, after lunch and free time, the students continued their work. Students would be either be working on the Functions if they did not finish it before the break, or continue onto the next section called Logic & If Statements. This allows for students to control their program and arrange certain codes to their liking.

Omar also introduced  a ranking and progress system for the students to follow. It displays the ranking and level of progression for all the students to see where they can improve or whether their rate of work is efficient.

Endangered Animals

6/18/2014

For the Grade 3 & 4 unit on biodiversity, the students studied endangered animals. To share their knowledge about an animal of interest, students were introduced to iMovie trailers and combined images and key facts about their endangered animals, to educate others. When working with iMovie trailers, it is always a challenge to choose the right words. However, once successful, a powerful message will come across. Completing an activity like this, helped the Grade 3 & 4 students become more familiar with searching and saving images online to then insert them into their video. This activity also allowed students to develop their French vocabulary related to animals and key terms of biodiversity and extinction. This Grade 3 & 4 class, really enjoy every opportunity they get to create something with the iPads and always work hard to produce a final product. 

Here are their video's:
