Homework and Study planning for finals

Hello ELC,

Today we begin the process of reviewing how to be organized for finals and how best to study. We will watch a video on the matter and then begin the homework.

Your homework (for a mark) for Wednesday May 29 (E block) or Thursday (C/D) is to fill in all your upcoming assignments/tests. 

This means asking your teachers:

·                 "When is the exam/test/assignment due?" 

·                "What will the exam/test cover?" 

·                "What format will the exam/test/assessment take?" 

·                "Will every chapter be evenly weighted on the exam/test?"

·                "Is there a study guide for this exam?

We watched the following video; please review and take notes on it.

Blocking and homework

Hello all,

Today you were to have your scripts printed (1 for  each team member).
A reminder that it is too late to be printing at the start of the block.

We worked on terminology for describing  your blocking and reviewed this link.

Next,

• you got your plays up and began blocking them. 
• you wrote your blocking on your  scripts so you will  recall  your choices.
• you took note of props  needed  and the movement of props on and off stage

Remember, the details matter. Planning ahead and running with props and costume changes will improve your play.

We will rehearse daily. Bring your script, props and costumes for next day.

• Your play performance and scripts are now due: May 13/14

Ms.S
