Here's this week's focus/theme. If you have some suggestions of a topic you'd like to spend a week working on (topic, TV show, comic book, musician/genre of music, etc.) put it in the comments and we can make it happen.
Week ??? - November 16-20 - Where did the time go?
So I blinked and it's 5 weeks until Christmas! BUT the good news is that I have broken the silence in order to announce an exciting development.
THE TURNING POINT BOOK/MOVIE CLUB!
Yup, starting this week we will be forming a 'club'. We're going to read a book (Punke's The Revenant) - many assignments can/will be completed around this work. Then, when the film comes out on Christmas Day, we'll all go see it - in January, once we're back to school. OK? We'll discuss more in class, so be sure you come in.
Here's the trailer: The Revenant
This week?
Monday - Building Basic Slide Shows
Tuesday - Class Discussion (Paris? ISIL/ISIS?/Deash?)
Wednesday - Slide Show Polishing/Perfecting
Thursday - Class Work - Finish Presentations
Week 1 September 14-18 - WELCOME
This first week we will spend thinking and talking about 'Welcomes', both in relation to starting the new school year, to you joining us, as well as all of the 'welcomes' occuring across the globe right now. Can you think of a time when you either felt welcome or were made to feel unwelcome? How was that achieved?
I'd like to study Kanye West announcing that he's running for president in 2020.
