Quarter 1
In computer class I learned how make a border and have an image of a roman solider in my poem. We learned two ways to get a border using word tools or getting them from the internet we had to learn how to make the border fit because some borders were covering our names. We also learned how to have an image in our text in many steps. At first we had to look for a picture that represents our text then we needed to put less color on some images. After that we center it and did other things to make the image fit perfectly with our text.

In my computer class we used this website called Everfi. On Everfi we learned how cyber bully can begin, how to chose a computer, how to make your password and username hard to be discovered, and other things that deal with cyber bullying. We also took tests at the end of every lesson to see how much we learned. I learned hoe to use the computer and internet safely.

In my computer class we use an app called Meograph. Since we did journal entries about different days traveling with Mansa Musa, we would have to do a slideshow to tell about our story. I learned so much from the people who traveled and learned they suffered a lot. So while make our Meograph we and to show how it would be to travel with Mansa Musa then we put our journal entries into it. I enjoyed doing this because with the pictures we put their and along with our journal entries it describe how those people felt while traveling and the photos described how some places looked.

Quarter 3
In my computer class we are learning about codes. We use blocks to make drawings like move forward by 90 degrees, turn right, jump forward, and other blocks to make the computer draw something but just using limited block or infinity. There are different activities and stages to do to learn code like being an artist and drawing stuff or feeding a zombie flowers and playing angry birds. This app has helped me understand what code is used for and how to use it.
Quarter 4
In my computer class we are learning how to know if something is real information or just something made up. To know if the website is real or not we have to look at the website thoroughly. We check for spelling errors and other things to know whether the website has valuable information or not. The URL sometimes help too. We also have to look on how they designed the website because if it looks all bad and not professional its probably not a good website to use. I learned many different ways to know if a website is real or spoof.
In my computer class we learned how to use spreadsheets. We learned where the columns, the rows, the quick access bar, the zoom bar, the ribbon, the formula bar, and many other things are. So we made a spreadsheet of our grades. We used different formulas so the spreadsheet made calculations by themselves instead of us adding and subtracted and them putting them on the spreadsheet. I learned how to use different formulas and learned how spreadsheets can be really useful for the future and for many other things.
