Friday, January 3

Today we did some rhetorical device review by identifying them in songs.  Yesterday we annotated the song "Starry, Starry Night" together as a class.  Now it is your turn to show me what you know.  Here are the instructions for the independent assignment, due Monday, Jan. 6.

Welcome back!  If you were absent today, this is what you missed.

Letter to Self--This was something we did during class and was due before you left. However, I will still accept it for full credit if you turn it in late.

Directions:
  • Paragraph #1:  Reflect on your winter break. What word would you use to describe it? Why? Was it hard to come back to school this morning?
  • Paragraph #2:  Goals for second half of the year… Include at least one academic goal and one other goal.

  • Paragraph #3:  Write about the people in your life that you will turn to when you have a hard time meeting those goals, or when you just need a boost of encouragement.  If you don’t have anyone, write about why you don’t have anyone (by choice? For other reasons?)

  • Closing:  Give yourself one piece of advice (1-2 sentences)
Remember, this is in letter format.


Academic teams
There have been some changes. Once I sift through all the paperwork from today, I will update the blog. Stay tuned!

NHD D-1
Before winter break, your NHD Draft 1 was due.  I am still working on giving feedback to everyone.  If you have not yet shared your Draft 1 with me, please do so as soon as possible.

End of Quarter 2 is Friday, January 17.  Get your missing work in! Let me know how I can help.
