Hello,
Conferences continue this week. I know that they are difficult to fit in and some may have to wait until after break (we have progress reports, test scores, independent projects and more that we could talk about). Quarter 2 is up and running and many students are settling into Trillium and the self-led, project-based model...but it takes time.
Some things coming up in my classes:
Writing = workshopping the first assignment continues and it will be due JAN. 2nd, 2007. Also Trent Retallack will come in this week and involve some middle school students with his class downstairs in the intermediate.
Modern Music = a discussion prompt assignment was due yesterday, and there is a chance to turn it in and continue the work on Wednesday. Project choices will be conference on this Wednesday.
Drama = scene work continues. Individual work throughs of every scene on Thursday. Due the week of our return (Jan. 4th)
Songwriting = First performance round this Wednesday!
MS literature = assignment has been given, all book choices due. In-class work happening now with an assignment to make rough draft of project due Jan. 3rd.
Graphic Novels = class is going great. Two assignments coming up. Rough draft of first due on Jan. 2nd.
Advising = Independent projects, class meetings, constitution review and current events taking up all our time! Due dates are individualized.
That is it for now. I will try to attach a newsletter to this site this month. Please email with any questions you might have: jkirke2001@yahoo.com
See ya soon,
Kirk
