Assignment Update

Here is a revision of the weekly assignments:

Advice Presentation -- I am extending the deadline until the end of April to make your presentations.  It is worth 20 points so it is extremely important to complete it.

Week of April 20th: Earth Day Assignment -- We will be watching a documentary in class and you will need to answer how you can help the environment.
Extra Credit:  Bring to me your ticket stub from seeing the movie Monkey Kingdom opening week (April 17th - April 24th).

Week of April 27th:  Open Mic Day -- Make sure you are selecting a poem that you can recite for this day.  In honor of National Poetry month we will be reading poems outloud.  You do not have to memorize it.  It needs to be at least 12 lines long.  You can find your poem in the textbook, online or you can read a poem you wrote yourself.

Week of May 4th:  Teacher Appreciation and Mother's Day Assignment -- I am combining these two assignments because Mother's Day is May 10th.  You will be creating cards for your favorite teacher and for your mother or a mother figure in your life.

Week of May 11th:  Resume assignment -- I am moving up the resume assignment one week.
