Ms Chase is away today, but please read the following post

Time is getting away from us quickly, there are only about 20 classes left. Please refer below this post for work that needs to be completed. NOTE: THE FIELD TRIP DATE HAS BEEN CHANGED FROM THIS WED TO Fri June 10 I WILL HAVE PERMISSION FORMS OUT TO YOU ON THURS.

Since the week of June 6-10 we will have teaching presentations, todays assignment is connected to this. You need to spend some time in today's class researching and planning out what and how you will be teaching your topic to the class. I would like you to hand in a typed description of what and how you are planning for your teaching session. I will be collecting tomorrow, and it will be given a mark of 10. Remember this could be how to do something in Photoshop or talking and demonstrating a photo hack or even showing new photo technology.

Since I am not here today, those working on videos have one more day and then I will be administering zeros to whomever does not have their work in on the m drive under chase 1. I would like each of you to also complete the following for a grade of 10 marks.

Group Evaluation on the video poem project: Focus on what part of the project you were involved in, what you learned, what went well, what could have been done better, how you would change the project, etc.I would like each of you to do this on your own and hand it in today or tommorrow. If there are some of you who did not get in your video storyboards, these have already been given a mark.

If you need microphones to do a voiceover, Ms Richards has them  to sign out in the library...also Alexandra you need to return the one you borrowed.
