Expectations for Friday

Hello Students!

Tomorrow we'll have a pep rally during 4th.  In order to maximize our time before the 3 day weekend, please make sure you do the following:

Directions:

Honors World Lit:

  • Sit in your groups.
  • First 10-15 minutes:  You should begin to define and familiarize yourself with the next 25 words in your 100 Words Every High School Student Should Know list.  I highly recommend [emphasis] that you write down the definitions and/or examples of use in your vocabulary notebook. 
  • Next 30-40 minutes:  In your group, your job today is to talk about the book you have been reading in/out of class.  Using the handout, to direct your questions, the goal of this talk is to familiarize yourself with potentially interesting books for you in the future.  
  • By the end of the 1st half of class, you should be able to complete the handout.
  • Next 30-40 minutes:  Using your phones, work on your scripts for Oedipus.  Make sure your ideas will mesh with the other groups for your play (1, 2, & 3.  4, 5, & 6).  Keep the theme and characterization the same!
  • Last 10 minutes:  Read your independent reading.
  • (Have you been working on your Treasure Island MWDS?  Have you started one for Oedipus?)


Yearbook  In Room 807

  • Have a round table discussion today. Keep the discussion positive and extremely productive. 
  • During this, someone should be the recorder to keep a record of these ideas.  Doing this digitally in the Drive would be a good idea. 
  • Is there a mod or set of mods that we want to have in every page that could help us tie our Story together? This would need to be something that is versatile, could apply to every single page in the book. Yesi, Jaya, explain the examples from last year. It is up to you if you want to use one specifically, different ones for different sections, a choice from a list, y'all have a ton of options, I want specifics. Make that decision. 
  • How do we want to organize the sports section? Make that decision. 
  • How do we want to organize the Clubs section? Make that decision. 
  • Discuss the Academics plan with the portaits. What mod template can we use for each subject area? Make that decision. (Academic might be what we need to start on. Are there 12 topics we could use for our first deadline? If not… )
  • What 12 spreads of the Yearbook contain ideas that can be completed during the month of September? 
  • What senior superlatives do we want to use? Dr. Walker needs to approve the list, so we need to brainstorm it quickly. 
  • What else are things we need to discuss right now? 
World Lit:
  • No class due to Pep Rally!
I hope you all have a wonderful day and an amazing weekend.
