CYBER-BULLYING

In Ms. Jackson class I've learned how to make brochures. I've also learned how to make flyers. During Ms. Jackson class I've learned how to put my typing scores in excel to document the rate of my typing speed to show how I've improved my typing. Also I have learned to feel out applications to get me a job and everything in the nature of working at a bussiness.

Taniesha Tolbert's Cyberbullying Poster, the title didn't copy, but it is Sexting!

This is an example of an a business letter that we had to write to another business for them to assist us. The example is a block style business letter.

My Typing Class

My name is Christopher and I am from Fort Middle School. I take a typing class and it's really fun to be in. We do many things of course typing which is important because you will need these skills one day. We do other things besides typing rarely. For instance, we do our warm ups called do nows that our teacher Ms. Jackson will usually give 10 minutes to do. When we're done with our typing lessons that's when we really do alot more things like going to CoolMath and other cool websites like that. She just went over Internet Safety. This includes, things on cyberbullying, cell phone tips, sexting, and exactly what is Internet Safety. Ms. Jackson let us watch some videos on cyberbullying, sexting, and Internet Safety. Once we watched the videos, we played games on the topic. After that, we learned how to create a brochure on cyberbullying using Microsoft Publisher, it's not really hard to do and quick to finish maybe 2 or 3 days. You just have to remember that there are two sides to the brochure. That's pretty much it, we've done so far, but I bet we will do lots more!

Here is my brochure that I created!

The 1st 9 Weeks is Over

We have been in school now an entire semester. I told my students that we have to realize that we are only in this class for an entire 9 weeks. The reason being is that we are on a A/B schedule. This means that I only see every class every other day. Since this is so, instead of being in the class for 90 days we are in here for only 45. With the 9 weeks being over now we only have 20+ days left in this class. Boy, time goes by fast when you are having fun in class.

7th grade

Some are still working on the alphabetic keyboard

Tree Map on Work Place Expectations

Videoing each other on Verbal, Non-Verbal, and Written Communication

There are so many standards to be covered in a semester. It seems as if there is not enough time to give the students the tools they need to succeed. As long as everyone finishes the keyboard I know that they have been given the right tools to be able to type and type correctly.

These are some photos of a couple of my classes! Did I mention that I had to decorate a door.

Effective Communication Skills Used to Succed in the Business World

These are a few examples of the standard:

MSBCS-BCSIII-2: The students will demonstrate effective communication skills used to succeed in the business world.

Kenneth created these Thinking Maps using Microsoft PowerPoint.

This is a Tree Map which demonstrates:

Explain the importance of proper etiquette for greeting and meeting people, dress
code, attendance, and other workplace expectations.

Differentiate between verbal and non-verbal communication

Explain the differences in Written and Verbal Communication

Keyboarding Class

Since I already know how to type Ms. Jackson started me on my numbers and symbols. In order to type your symbols you have to use your shift keys (right or left). You use your left shift for your right hand and right shift for your left hand. If you don't use your shift keys you will only type the numbers.

I took this class last year and learned my alphabetic keyboard. This year, Ms. Jackson started me on my numbers and symbols. Ms. Jackson allows us to make-up missed work. She also gives us an opportunity to do our Do Now's on the SmartBoard. We usually do our keyboarding for 30 minutes and after that we can get on FreeRice or Brainbashers.
