Today's Agenda:


1. Review Grammar Concepts

  • Under "Share" settings, change it so that "anyone with the link" can view your work.

3. Re-Reading "The News", paragraphs 7-11
  • This is a difficult section. You need to be sure you understand this entire essay because you will be writing about it for a later assignment! Before checking Reading Pyramids for this section, I want you to re-read this section. I've provided audio of me reading this section below so you can listen and read at the same time:
    • Paragraph 12

    • Paragraph 13

    • Paragraph 14

    • Paragraph 15

    • Paragraphs 16 and 17

  • Analyzing the elements of television news (complete in Google Docs, I'll be checking this over the weekend)

4. Your remaining time is for:
  • Your Online Portfolio
    • Add a page for your "Analyzing the elements of television news" assignment.
    • Complete and add to your description of your learning (Reading, Writing, Speaking) and your Self Introduction.
      • Be sure to do this. We won't have nearly as much computer lab time over the summer.
