Class Hours: 10:05 – 2:40
Mr. Cronin
Notes
- Happy Friday!
- Try to get your work completed (and scanned?) today so Monday during Last Looks your life is easy. Remember Monday’s aren’t for DOING work, just uploading it.
- Did you know that you have a 3 day of school next week with Thursday and Friday off?
- Did you know that you get the Friday AFTER Halloween off later on this month?
- Well our schedule has changed AGAIN at 8:51 due to English being canceled, so, let’s take a look…

Adobe Premiere is a professional video editing software. It’s widely used by video editors, filmmakers, and content creators for editing, organizing, and refining video footage. Premiere Pro offers a comprehensive set of tools for editing video and audio, adding effects, color correction, and transitions, as well as handling a wide range of file formats.
We will spend the first 20 minutes of Friday’s learning Premiere so we can incorporate it into our workflows.

Check back to the Wednesday Dayplan for specifics.
As we have had our English class canceled, I am going to offer a chance for extra credit with the bouncing balls and more project.
If you “Sound Design” your project, with logical and accurate impact sounds for your animation, I will boost your grade a full letter. So B work becomes an A, A work becomes a 105, etc.

A Gentleman in Moscow is a reader’s dream — a wonder-full, nuanced story full of wit, insight, and imagination.
Read along with Mr. Cronin. Improve literacy, word decoding, enjoy a nice story, and unplug from the world.

2:20 “19 Minutes”
![](https://cawdvt.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/19Minutes-1024x576.jpg)
4 of 5 days per week we will end our day in CAWD with the “19 Minutes” of silent reading. Closing down our day with silent reading provides many benefits:
- Improve Literacy Skills / Reading Stamina
- Create space for a small reading meditation where we can disconnect from the world and get lost in a story
- Unplug
At 2:39 each day I will come to 3 students and ask for a 1 sentence explanation of what happened in your story over that day’s reading session. It is neat to hear little pockets of a story, here and there.
2:40 Dismissal
