3rd Quarter Exams Part 3

Each of you has a page that has been assigned to you.  For part 3 of your quarter exam you will do the following:

Step 1-  Open Yearbook Avenue
Step 2- Print your page as it stands now.  It should still be a 'work in progress'.   
Step 3- Compose an email stating the following
  1. Access your progress.  What do you like about what you've done so far.
  2. What is lacking?  What can you improve?
  3. Explain your plan for finishing the page.  Give yourself a deadline for when the page can be completed and sent to the editors for revisions.
  4. Give yourself a letter grade for your work on this spread this quarter.
Step 4- Send this email to bbollman74@gmail.com

This is due at the end of class on Friday.  






Bonus-  Yearbook isn't just for geeks and nerds.  Look who was on her high school yearbook staff.

New Projects

I have a really fun project for three or four people to do.   You will create a fill-in-the-blank section of the elementary yearbook.  More details today.

Jump Starts were due yesterday.  Please get them in if you haven't done it yet.  Now turn those ideas into a cut-out and data box at the bottom of your page.  I will show an example today.

Chaz/Cory- We are still working on the records of the varsity sport teams.  Let's get those worked on today.

Amy/Ashley- I have a big project for you two today (and the rest of the week) with cameras.  I will tell the whole class about it.

I also have some graphic design work (cut-outs and such).

Let's work hard today!
