TED Talk for BBT

This video goes with Week # 6 assignment.

Posted: May 12, 2020

Hello again everyone.  This week we are going to shift away from Microsoft Word and focus a bit on Powerpoint.  I know we were doing that massive Powerpoint before all this started, but no worries, we are going to leave that in the past (I can hear you all giving a sigh of relief right now). 

This week, simpy watch the TED Talk on the link provided, and while you do, follow along with the sheet provided and answer the questions.  That's it!  Simple right?  Keep in mind that I chose to share this video with you because we could all use help with how to put together an effective presentation that will keep the attention of those listening.  So, do your best to learn from this and put into practise some of the tips the presenter gives.  It may help you someday!  Have a great week!

Week #4 - Theatre Arts

Hello everyone!  Hope you are all doing well and staying safe.  There is a slight glimmer of light at the end of this tunnel, so let's keep working on keeping our distance so we can come together soon!

Just I thought I would share a little dance tutorial this week for the song "This is Me" off of The Greatest Showman musical.  I know how you all loved to dance during Theatre Arts so this may satisfy that need for some of you.

Take care of yourself this week!

Hey evryone!  I hope you all had a wonderful Easter, it was very different but will be worth it once we are able to get back to normal.

Hopefully, you are thinking about our Virtual Talent Show, I know I am!  I would love to get a few submissions soon so continue to think about this and get recording!  This would be a great way to get your mind off our situation and hopefully provide some fun and laughs.

Here is another activity to try.

Choose a book and read it with your family (or if you can remember one fairly well, or even look online)

Next, create a board of six tableau scenes (frozen pictures) that tell the whole story, using your family members.

You must “direct” your family members in these tableau scenes, take pictures of each one, and save your pictures and share with me!

I would love to see what you come up with.

Have a great week!

Hey everyone!  I hope you all are well and are finding ways to spend your time during these unusual times.

Since Mrs. Richard and I taught this class together, we are still collaborating on your home learning objectives.  With this in mind, she has posted the English plan for the week on her teacher page, so please check it out.

Have a great week!
