Scavenger Hunt Reflection

I think that the Scavenger Hunt we did today in Computer Apps was different and fun. I thought that I knew what to do finding information fast because I do things like that all time. Two other things that I could improve on would be knowing exactly what to type in and know which website would be best for the needed information.

Computer Buying Reflection

2 things I liked about the Computer Buying Project:
- Learned the different parts of a computer
- Learned which type of computer is better for certain things

1 thing that was a challenge:
- I think it would have been helpful to go over the vocabulary sheet before we started the project

First Post

Hey! My name is Laura Taylor. I am a senior at RMHS. I just turned 17 on August 27th (the first day of school). This is my fifth year in the RMHS Color Guard. I am part of  I have two cats named Percy and Marty. I go to Meredith, New Hampshire on Lake Waukewan all summer and love to swim, kayak, lay in the sun and hike. Over the summer, I hiked Mount Adams, Jefferson and Madison. Besides Guard and Hiking I'm actually quite lazy and love watching shows on Netflix.

Computer Buying project-Reflection

So far, working on this project with my partner has been pretty easy and going well. I think we communicate well and listen to each others ideas. To my knowledge, we have been splitting up the amount of work fairly so one of us doesn't do extra work.
