9/6

Sorry I've been a little behind lately... here's what's happening...

PW: We read chapters one and two of Part II of The Hunger Games in class.  On Monday we will be in the library working on Collaborize Classroom to answer a writing prompt (if you want you can check it out over the weekend). 
The newspaper editor will be in on Tuesday to talk to you about your homecoming article, paper distribution, etc.

PA: Fun day today!  You did a good job with first impressions of Gulliver.  I posted the reading on Collaborize Classroom if you want to get ahead, but it's not mandatory.

12ers: Read through one 158 and write one awesome discussion question.

FW: A lot of you were gone today... on Monday we will be back in the Mac Lab getting a tutorial on Garage Band from Mr. Anderson.  He will help you import sound effects.

SS: Some of you drew some very interesting things in class today!  Good job on your vocabulary quiz!

Crew: Read Chapter one of Gulliver's Travels and write about your first impressions of him as a character.  How do you feel about him as a narrator?  Is he trustworthy?  Is there anything about his character that makes you want to recoil?
I liked that you enjoyed the writing/drawing activity.  Maybe we could work that in to some kind of creative writing prompt later on in the year.
