Thursday, September 25th

Class Hours: 10:05 – 2:40
Mr. Cronin

Notes

Fire Drill at 2pm today! Remember that we all go outside to our area in the parking lot. I will take attendance and submit it outside so don’t dillydally, get there as a group, be cool, and let’s come in. Dailies 2:15 regardless – does it make sense to put something in for dailies before the Fire Drill so you can guarantee success? Canceled until 2pm tomorrow!
Remember you end up in English after lunch!

10:05 Attendance and Article

10:10 Adobe AM

Thursday’s during our morning session we are going to use for Adobe work, getting comfortable with the different programs and workflows that are found out there.

Adobe makes a wide range of software which is found in our industries, and we will get a handle on the meat and potato’s, the most used pipelines.

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.

2:15 Dailies

2:20 “19 Minutes”

Every day in GAWD will end with “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 the end I will 3 students and ask for a 1 sentence explanation of what happened.
