Yearbook Today

Continue working on your current page (project grade). It is due in roughly two weeks time.

Follow the rubric to get the grade you would like. To do well on the approval sheet(quiz grade), it would be smart to aim for this Thursday/Friday to start getting signatures and finding out what to fix. The last class day of this week, you will be graded on what you have done so far. I am not expecting it to be entirely finished, but I am expecting a fair effort to already be done(quiz grade). A fair effort means there should already be some pictures up that are edited in the proper style, captions and copy writing, and page layout. Waiting till the week your page is due is NOT a good idea.

It would be a good idea to look at some of the pages from 16-32 in the software. These pages are completed and already submitted. They should give you a good idea of at what quality we are looking for in layout, pictures, captions, writing, etc.

You should be able to get down your layout design, and begin copy writing, as well as find out when you need to take photos.

A fair number of you do not spend your class time working(daily grade) nor update your blog each class (daily grade). You need to spend class time working on your page to get a good participation/work effort grade. You need to be updating your blog explaining what you've got accomplished each day to do well on the blog check. Some of you haven't blogged since last semester, some of you haven't logged into studio works since last semester, and theres even a few of you who have done neither.

Failing to do any of these things will make it hard to have a passing grade. Like always, you are welcome to come for extra time most days at lunch and after school. You are also welcome to come and borrow a camera to get pictures taken. It is your responsibility to get these your page complete, not someone else's.
