Publishing Your Projects: February 10, 2017

Focus: What can we learn about each other through our projects?

1. Warming up with a "quiz" on Grammar You Must Know, Lesson #5: Parallel Structure

2. Taking a few minutes to write a brief introduction for your video
  • What is this video?
  • What do you want people to know before they watch it?
  • What do you want people to focus on as they watch it?
  • What do you hope people will gain from your video?

3. Watching and commenting on each other's videos; start with your blogging buddies, then watch whichever ones you'd like to (also, if anyone wants to show theirs on the big screen, now's the time)
  • What did you learn about this person from watching his or her video?
  • What worked for you?
  • Questions you'd like to ask?
4. Returning to Tribute Memoir Writing, Week 1: Quirks

HW:
1. Read Chapters 1\2, 13, and 14 for Tuesday; complete your blog entry. I'm in the process of leaving feedback on your first three blogs (Chapter 1, Chapters 2-5, and Chapters 6-8); please make sure all of your blogs are published and up-to-date.

2. By Monday, finish your list of quirks for your "character" (the family member to whom you are writing this tribute memoir). For specific directions, see Slide #8 in Tribute Memoir Writing, Week 1: Quirks

3. Next Friday, bring in a collection of photos and artifacts that have to do with your "character."
