Semester II, Days 32 – 34 –> Independent Study

Mr Richard will not be at school this week.  Students are expected to continue their work.  Here are your tasks:

• presentations must be completed
• when you are finished your presentation, you have the following task:

Complete the NIS Campus in SketchUp.

On your computers My Documents –> Class Files –> Grade 8 –> NIS Campus Kit … you will find the two buildings we completed.

Start with either the High School or Wooden building

Turn off all unnecessary layers.  You only need the foundation

Two students go out and get a rough estimate of how many meters the buildings are apart.  You may use Google Maps to get a reference.

Students should divide the work and share results.  Create the auditorium, gym, store and pool.  Use layers to turn off complete buildings to avoid lag.

In the end, everyone will have a completed NIS Campus.

This is a lot of work.  Students must use their time wisely.  Be good, work hard and I will see you next week.

Mr Richard

PS, if students want to update SketchUp, the installation files on a couple of the new computers.  You may use it to update.  See Nicky for help.
