April 12, 2023

 Hello! Here's what you're up to today - sorry I'm not there!

English 8

  • Silent reading for 15 minutes. Remember that your goal for tomorrow is to read up to and including chapter 11 in Strangers
  • Recapping instructions for assignment 7 (the visual assignment)
  • Time to complete your assignment 7. A few reminders:
    • There are examples by the door closest to the phone for you to peruse
    • Your goal is to display a specific tone with your image
    • It is due tomorrow

New Media 10

  • PM only: Note that there is a lockdown drill at 2pm
  • Reminder: your assignment 4 (the media essay) is due today (end of day). Take 20 minutes to turn your attention to it.
  • Watch (or listen to, if technology is not agreeing with you) the first eight songs of Hamilton (to the end of "You'll be Back," or about 24:30 on Disney+)
  • Written responses (Write down your thoughts, in about 3-4 sentences each. They won't be submitted for marks, but I'll check that they're complete. We'll discuss your answers tomorrow):
    • How do you feel about Alexander Hamilton the character? Do you sympathize with him? Why?
    • The Schuyler sisters are excited to live in a time of revolution and war. How do you think you would react to such instability in our own society?
    • You've now had a chance to listen/watch the first 8 songs. What are your first impressions of the musical?
