Correct fingers assignment; Makeup day

To begin with, I want you to warm up using p. 18, all lines on Section 8E.

After a few minutes of warming up, we will complete a Correct Fingers assignment on Classmarker.  If you don't remember, the Correct Fingers assignments are where you enter the correct finger you use on each key (for example, the right index finger, or R1, is used to type the letter J).

After completing that activity, we are going to use the rest of the time to make up any work that you have missing.  There are plenty of people with missing assignments, so if your name is on the wall you should be working to complete and hand in whatever is missing.  There are plenty of possibilities in terms of missing assignments - vocab quiz, crossword puzzle, Assignments (Formatting activities, 10 Facts about me, etc.).  If you need to make up something missing and it is on Classmarker, please let me know before you start working on it.

If you do not have any missing assignments you have several choices as to what you can do.  I will allow you to complete any work that is due - for example your Edmodo posts or your crossword puzzles that are due Friday (7th and 8th hour - we do not have class on Friday so I am strongly recommending that you get your crossword puzzle done today in class and turned in).

If you have everything done you can go to the practice websites listed on the blog.  You WILL have your speed skin on your keyboard as you are working, and you will stay busy the rest of the period.  You are not to be on a website that is unrelated to what we are doing in class (for example searching images in Google or on a website that we have never talked about using in class).  Also, there will be no chatting in Gmail or posting unnecessary comments and replies in Edmodo (and other time-wasting activities) - once you have everything done you are to practice on the websites I've given you.
