We're starting our Friday with 20 minutes of reading to get in the zone, Starbooks style. No journal prompt today!
2. Submit Your Writing
- You have had all week dedicated to writing your letter to a specific audience. Today is the absolute last day it is due.
- Your work should be typed and submitted to Google Classroom where I have an assignment called "Op-Ed: Fake News and Bias in Reporting"
3. Finish TED Talk + Précis
- Yesterday a few of you began the assignment to watch this TED Talk by Eduardo Zanetta but not everyone finished.
- Write a 4 sentence précis in your journal titled "Precis: Failure is a Part of Success" under today's journal entry
- I'm coming around to check your precis and stamp it for this week's journal score

4. Peergrade
Check Powerschool and make up an assignment that you didn't do so well on. You can always request a regrade on any assignment that was done on paper or submitted online (just not verbal assignments like discussions).
- We're going to check out our classmates' work and score them on a rubric online.
- You will anonymously view three classmates' work and score them according to a set of questions.
- Take your time and give genuine feedback that could help.
- Follow the link in Google Classroom to peergrade to get started but wait for my direct instruction to go any further.
