Week of April 4th

#EdAppHack on Tuesday!!!
So excited about the pitch competition on Tuesday. Please bring in your permission forms on Monday so we can ensure everyone is attending.

We need to be at school at 7:50a.m. on Tuesday morning in order to leave by 8:00a.m. This will be difficult for me as well but I'll be there! We need to bring the iPads and display boards...pack a snack too.

Here are a few photos of your work this week:

Data collected for "Writy"

Rationale for the creation of "The Closet"

Paper prototype for "My Motivator"

Our goal on Monday is to complete the display boards and present our final pitches to the class.
