Media Campaign: Class 1 (Friday, Sept 20)

Updates:
Steve and I have shifted the schedule to accommodate the new Grade 8 timetable. NLC will now have STEM Block C and Humanities Block D daily.

Class Outline:

  1. Check In: where is everyone at for their Express Yourself Challenge? Express Yourself Challenge: Plan/Draft Due on Tuesday! 
  2. Silent Reading
  3. Dystopian: 


  • What is it? 
  • How authors use the genre to express their concerns or critique the world they live in
     4. Mr. Yule's Grade 12 Writing Class visit.

  • In small groups, Grade 12 students will present the dystopic stories they have written. 
  • NLC students will discuss with the authors what they were trying to convey and how they tried to convey it in their writing. 
  • NLC students will give Grade 12 students feedback using the supplied rubric and "I like, I like, You might want to try."   
Depending on when Mr. Yule's class arrives, silent reading may occur at the end of class.
