Announcements:
- Due to schedule conflict, office hours this week are Monday & FRIDAY from 1-2pm. Back to normal Mon/Weds schedule next week.
- GRADING POLICY CHANGES: You may have heard the grading policy for the district is a bit up in the air right now. We don't have much info, so I'm continuing to grade as normal until we know more.
- AERIES: Red boxes in aeries mean I have already graded the assignment and yours was missing. Blank boxes mean I'm still working on grading/adding grades to aeries. The best thing you can do is check that all assignments have been SUBMITTED on Google Classroom by the due date.
- LATE WORK: If you're turning in something late, check whether it's been graded in aeries or not. If not, you're set! I'm still getting around to grading it. If it's a red box, I'm done grading and not going back unless you email me with your period and assignment name once you've turned it in so I know to go back and look for yours to update it in aeries
- WELLNESS: I want to help you succeed and I know times are hard! Reach out to me if you're struggling. I'm doing my best to try and keep up and help everyone too, so including helpful info like class period and assignment name really help me to cut down on how long it takes to find and update your late work grades.
- Warm Up Question:
1. What is one specific challenge you've faced in the last week(s)? How did you (or are you still) responding to that challenge?
2. What is one success you've experienced in the last week(s)?
3. What is one goal you have for the next week or two?
Assignment:
Surrealism Project Shot list; take photos and begin masking/combining in Photoshop.
Surrealism Project Photos; turn in the photos you take or find online for use in your Surrealism Project.
