This is just the hodge-podge of Warm Ups I use all semester long in Career Portals. I add to it every year and every semester, but it covers a variety of topics. It tends to be in line with my Career Portals TEKS and what I have to cover in class including warm ups related to: 1) 16 Career Clusters (As a whole and individually) -Agriculture, Law & Public Safety, Education and Training, 2) Resumes 3) Cover Letters 4) Job Applications 5) Red Ribbon Week 6) SAT Prep 7) College Basics (Financ

This is the exam I give at the end of the semester for my Computer Applications class. This is an activity I created myself that incorporates: -a Letter in MS Word - Spreadsheet in MS Excel -Flyer in MS Publisher -Presentation in MS Power point The entire project has a common theme and can be adapted to fit the likes of your students!

After completing our unit on Power Point, Computer Applications jumps straight into Excel. I assign a big budget project where students take the starting salary of the Career he/she chose for the Power Point Presentation and create a real, "grown up" budget for themselves using the starting salary given to them. Students are required to look up grown up "bills" and make choices for themselves and what they would like to spend money on.

This is the Powerpoint presentation I show to my students to begin my Animation class. It is the very beginnings of animation. After we view the power point we make thaumatropes in class. I also have an answersheet and a blank answersheet on the site.

After teaching my Computer Applications students the basics of Microsoft Word, I give them this quiz to test their knowledge

I use this activity in my Computer Applications class as the first Business Letter students create on their own after we have created on as a class. I include the proper steps to go through when creating the proper business letter.

This is an exam that uses the 10 vocabulary words I give students for Excel (also uploaded to TpT) using multiple choice.

For my Game Creation class, I use www.scratch.mit.edu as a basic introduction into code, building blocks, creating games, etc. This is the first project I give in Scratch after we have discussed the basics of coding on the website.

For my Game Creation Class, I use this packet of 70+ Game related vocabulary words and short answer questions as a "mouse in my back pocket" when students do not stay on task. It can be used as something built on all semester, reference material, etc.

Twenty words I use to introduce Excel to my Computer Applications students. The 1st page is the vocabulary filled in and the second page is blank copy for students to take notes with.

This is the Worksheet to Accompany my Prologue to Animation unit that I do at the beginning of the year for Animation.

This is just a daily grade power point I use to introduce students to Power Point after we have gone over vocabulary, a "screen shot" and introduced basic concepts.
