Please turn in by the end of class. Grammar and spelling are not graded: only your understanding of the story!

Note to Mr. Buse (The only reason you're able to answer these prompts is because sci fi is about the here and now)  

Time capsule from the dead planet

Work to be completed while teachers are conferencing with other students. Only work on in class!

This is designed to take approximately an hour. If you have extended time, please allot extra time to finish this final. You are free to work on this at any point: it is due Wednesday at 4 pm.

Complete all work in the document. If you would like to print it out and complete by hand, please e-mail me.

Instructions are in the final, but please e-mail us with any questions! All of these questions are based off of activities we did with our poems in class: your notes will be very helpful and useful.

Enjoy!

Upload a recording of your poetry recitation to this link before Thursday's class. You will need video as well as audio.

Please see the slides from Wednesday for information. Your videos will NOT be viewable to people in the class except when presented by Mr. Buse, unless you give permission otherwise.

(If you weren't in class, e-mail me for a question to answer)

You will attach a google document to this assignment. Prompt and information attached.

Super quick!

:)

Due by the end of class, examples in class slides.

Not going to finish? That's okay if you talk to a teacher during class.

See the attached document. Subject to change!

Please complete before the end of the day. We are working asynchronously today, but you should have checked in with the substitute teacher (Period 2 only) or me (everyone else).

Here is the first part of our reading for Beowulf!

We will read lines 1-103 (pages 7-9,)and complete the attached document.

The goal here is to read a small amount of reading very closely and to actually read it.

If your eyes start to glaze over and run over the lines without actually reading: STOP. Readjust. Find your focus. If you need to take a break, take a break.

(We may move to Kami for the future readings.)

Grading:
3=Well done, with thought. Maybe a question is missing, but you marked your confusion and the other answers are well thought out.
2=Something is missing and you didn't ask me any questions, done without much thought.
1=A lot missing
0=Incomplete

Use your notes.

This was glitching some, so you might have to "Mark it as done" after submitting. I think I fixed it, but please double check.

Instructions included in document.

We will go over this Tuesday in class, but I encourage you to read over it ahead of time.

Subject to change! We have not yet assigned a due date, but will soon.

The end of the beginning of the year.

30 second exit slip to complete at the end of class.

Attached is the quiz. Use your notes and be as specific as possible.

Also attached is the story of Theseus. You do not need to read it, but it is a very good example of a hero's journey if you do not have your own examples ready. An audio read out loud is available on the site if you log in with your google account.

Please complete the quiz within the class period. If you are unable to finish within the class period, submit what you have and send me an e-mail ([email protected]) . We will discuss when to find you time to finish it.

Attached is:

1. Today's exit slip

OPTIONAL Material (See slides):

2. An abridged version of one of the most ancient stories. Match it to the Hero's Journey in your definition chart. How many different steps can you find?

3. An example of a Hero's Journey analysis. Your first writing assignment will be very similar to this. Watch it for inspiration. NOTE: The vocabulary is different, but the ideas are the same! Note that the author explains how Star Wars lines up with each step of the journey. You will only have to explain TWO steps--however, I encourage you to choose more.

I encourage you to use your own googling skills to look up other examples of the Hero's Journey.

Less than 5 minutes. Complete before the end of class. Make sure it is marked as turned in after you have submitted it.

We will complete this in class on Monday. You may work with other people; however, your writing should be your own writing. Instructions are in the document.

Note: the due date is set as Tuesday morning before school. However, you should plan on finishing this in class on Monday.

This is the final beginning of the year survey. We will complete it during class on Tuesday to make groups for Wednesday's class. Thank you!

When submitted on Flipgrid, please click "Mark as Done" here to clear your assignment page.

To be completed in class. Do not complete early.

This survey will help me make sure the class is engaging for you and will help me guide you towards learning what you want to learn. Completing this survey should take you about 15-25 minutes. You can come back to edit it later if you can't finish it all in one sitting: hit submit and reopen it and you can continue where you left off.

If for some reason, this survey doesn't give you space to tell me what you need to tell me, send me an e-mail @ [email protected]! You can edit questions after submission by reclicking on this link after submitting the form.

Complete this short survey before the second day of school. This will also ensure that your Google Classroom is working properly.

1. Sign up for Flipgrid using the link below.

2. Complete the question on Flipgrid and submit on Flipgrid.

3. Return here and mark the assignment as complete.

The purpose of this assignment is to make sure everyone can get on Flipgrid.

(If you don't mark the assignment as complete, then it will forever be on Google Classroom taking up space on your "Missing Assignments" agenda)
