Midweek Masterpieces
Starting next Wednesday, January 14th, we will begin 'Midweek Masterpieces.' This will involve one G9 and one G10 performing a Shakespearean speech. Ideally, the speeches will be memorized, though occasional note glances will be tolerated. There will not be time for everyone to perform, so hesitation in volunteering is strongly discouraged.
If you interested, follow this link to see the speeches, along with background and performance tips.

G7 Homework - News Story
On p247 of the textbook, we looked at Media Elements. We started to copy down the table, but alas, we didn't finish it. You need to finish the box, but you must use your own examples! Remember, I told you to keep the 'Example' box empty.
"How?" I hear you say. Well, first you need to find a news story that interests you. An example would be the global festivities to ring in 2015.
In the 'Text and Content' example box, I could a direct quote from the site/newspaper I got it from, and then write the name of the site/newspaper below.

Celebrations to mark the start of 2015 have taken place around the world.

For the rest of the boxes, explain the example you chose, and cite it (say where it came from).
Use the picture below as a guide to help. E-mail if you have any question.
Remember, you can use different websites to give examples for the same story.
