Happy St. Patrick's Day! They dye the Chicaco River green every year for St. Patrick's Day!
Bell Assignment: Hoping this link works and we can do brackets in our classes. Reminders: Sina, Kirsten, Davis, or Jordan...remind me before 8 to call my son's orthodontist, check on the filming for Grab's class and to set that up, and run through the TTV stories and check status and quality. Suggest changes to make them the best they can be!! Also be sure I call the Apple guys. Remind me and remind me...I get distracted and these are important things. Link to Broadcasting Page and click on appropriate link for what you are working on. You are either looking at Senior Video Page, March TTV Page, Current Projects.
"Hey! Don't be slackin' off on your projects!!" (Note to Sina...Did you get the pics off the camera? I'm going to delete them.)
"Hey senior video crew? Do you got my back? Work hard!!" Did you finish the quiz from last Friday? Click back to check what you are missing if necessary. I believe a folder has been created for this. Let's check together. Film Festival Planning needs to start NOW!! Want to have a test on Thursday and Friday. Need a way to see where each individuals skills are. Will be chance for each of you to show what you can or can't do and this will give me a way to gauge things I need to focus on teaching you. I'll work on some specifics you will have to know how to do. Bonus: I will give everyone in class who does this extra credit an extra point if CJ does it too. OK...here you go: See Film Festival link. There is a picture of an actor at the top of the page portraying a police officer. What is the name of the town his character was played in? Have Shane put it in the gradebook if you write the answer to the following question on a piece of paper that is properly labeled.
"Caught slackin? Your grade will be lackin!" I have a Dryers Ice Cream connection...step up and produce this week and I'll treat everyone to ice cream on Friday! Q: What's Irish and stays out all night?
