Week of Oct 21 - 25

Hi All!

This week, we will be wrapping up our Urban Legend podcasts. As some of us experienced today, working with Garage Band and iMovie can sometimes create a bit of frustration...

Goals for Friday (Oct 25), are to have AT LEAST an audio recording DONE and uploaded into  Google Drive. Some people finished everything today (good on ya!) This might require others of you to record on your own time.

We'll also be starting our Exhibit inquiries this week. Everyone found out today which Japanese time periods they'll be researching -- further instruction will be given Weds/Thurs.

Reminder that by Friday afternoon, all three documents (Edo Expert articles + Meiji + Change is Coming) in the Google Share folders, are to be read. Based on what we've covered in class, notes, and now your additional readings, everyone should be able to confidently describe the changes that occurred during Edo, as well as, provide pertinent details on what led to the Meiji Restoration.

...There just might be an in-class task for you to respond to on Monday, Oct 28. *smiley face

If you have any questions, come see me.

-Mrs. Lockyer

A Final Message Before The Break

Hello 8's! We both just wanted to send out a final message. Since next week is spring break, we won't be receiving or replying to messages until Sunday, March 29. We have all been working hard over the past few months, so we encourage you to step away and relax. As we mentioned in our post from Monday, this past week was still a school week - albeit from home - but you are now officially on spring break. Powerschool has been updated with this week's assignments that were collected. If anything is reflecting as "missing" or "incomplete," that means that we have not received it. This could be a technical issue, but we encourage you to double check (You all know about Mr. Badr's frustration with some vanishing google doc shares) We know there is a lot of uncertainty about what is going to happen after the break. We can't answer your questions regarding that. Please keep an eye on your emails from the CBE and/or TMC School for messages on any u...
