10:05 Attendance and Article

10:10 Adobe AM

Illustrator is a popular vector graphics editor used by designers, artists, and illustrators to create a wide range of digital artworks. Unlike raster graphics (which are made up of pixels), vector graphics in Illustrator are based on mathematical equations, allowing them to be scaled infinitely without losing quality. This makes Illustrator particularly well-suited for creating logos, icons, illustrations, typography, and other designs that need to maintain clarity at any size.

We will spend the first 20 minutes of Thursday’s learning Illustrator so we can incorporate it into our workflows.

Our muse for today.

2:15 Dailies

2:20 “19 Minutes”

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.
