Today you should be working on the following items in this order:
Ethics in the Media = 8 of you either didn't do it, or only did part of it - Finish this! This was due two weeks ago and it is a MAJOR grade.
Opinion Story #1 = 9 of you either didn't do it, didn't complete it or it isn't shared properly - I STRONGLY recommend that if you wrote this and it is 1 paragraph, that you make some adjustments so it's like one of the samples you looked at in Opinion Writing preview. This was due LAST WEEK. Every one of these done past today will suffer a 20 point deduction. This was also a MAJOR grade.
Opinion Story #2 = this was assigned last class and should be completed by today for full credit. This is a MAJOR grade.
Opinion Writing Preview: do you want to know why so many of you didn't do things correctly on Opinion Story #1.....you didn't do the preview assignment = 17 of you either didn't do this assignment or skipped the part where you were supposed to READ stories from another school...... Any of these turned in after today will be minus 20 points. This is a Minor Grade.
Club News Story = 11 of you either haven't started this or don't have enough done on it to get full credit on it. This story is due by Friday. Some of you have a LOT of work to do on this story. This is for a MAJOR grade.
There will be a Current Events Quiz on Friday.
Next week we will start the Design unit, anything not complete at that point will suffer point deductions of at least 20 points per assignment.
You can do this, but you have to put in the work. Some of you really need to do some of these things at home and do some work outside of class to complete these assignment. We are not done with the writing unit, but I want to have you create graphics for your opinion pieces. So, we will be shifting to non-writing for a few classes. We will be back to writing before Xmas, and you will have an assignment to work on over the holiday break. Be ready for that.
