Portfolios & Last Class

Please prepare and complete your portfolios this morning. Everything missing should be turned in by the end of class today. Please save any files on a jumpdrive or by emailing yourself that you want to keep as our computers will be wiped this summer. Any personal files kept on the computers will be removed.

Have a nice summer and good luck on your finals!

If you have completed your work, here are a few gaming sites to enjoy:

Gamehouse
Addicting Games
Free Online Games

Portfolio & Reflection

After screening the completed films, please complete the following tasks today:

1. Take the film project survey (this should only take you a few minutes to complete)
2. Look through your portfolio. Remove any hand-written and homework assignments from it. Gather your fiction together, gather your poetry together, and gather your script drafts together.
3. If you have it, take out and read your letter to "The Enemies of the Writing Process" (see post:  )
4. Reflect on your progress as a writer this year. In a 2-4 page reflection (double spaced) reflect on what you did well, what you need more work or help on, and your overall growth that you feel you made this year. You may reference your English and Journalism classes as well. If you participated in any extra curricular activities, reflect on these as well (particularly how they helped or hindered your progress as a writer).

Your portfolio (with reflection) is due as your FINAL EXAM on Monday, June 10.

Film Project Due!

Please continue to work on your film project. It is due by the end of class today. Please allow 10 minutes or so at the end of class to render your film (this takes a bit of time!)

When you complete your film, please upload it to Youtube and send me the address link. You will also need to save your MP4 file on my jumpdrive for storage.

HOMEWORK: None. Congratulations on making a film!
