*** For those who would like to see how to do question 4 from Math yesterday, go to the Stream link by Assignments and you will see a short video I did.
***So far only 4 students have completed the Core Competency assignment. It has been a busy week so not a problem, I just want to make sure you don't forget to do it.

Check In: If you could invite someone you really admire to have dinner with, who would it be and why? If I could invite anyone over for dinner it would be Michelle Obama. She is brilliant, funny, and seems very down to earth. Her insight into how to make the world a better place is something I truly admire. She also came from a working class family, so she learned that hard work and perseverance are what it takes in life and these are two things I definitely also believe in.

Week Long Project: - Core Competency Self Reflection - see Assignments - due Friday 3:00. Make sure you have a comment in each of the 3 core competencies in FreshGrade.
Math: - see Assignments - June 11 - Mid Chapter review - quiz tomorrow
***Ted Talk: See below for Ted Talk Basics
1. speech and slides completed for Friday, June 12; Share power point with me.
2. practise, record and upload to FreshGrade week of June 15 to 19.
Book Trailer: Due today - June 11 - upload to FreshGrade - be sure to check the criteria before uploading
1. TIPS TO THINK ABOUT:
  1. script for voice over written and practised so it is clear, smooth and has emotion in your tone
  2. visuals chosen and inserted into iMovie or ?
  3. Sound effects and music chosen and match mood of trailer
  4. transitions used so images flow smoothly (fades, slide in and out, dissolve, etc)
  5. clear title of book and name of author
  6. if video is over 3 minutes, it may not upload to FreshGrade so you may need to think of an alternative like putting it online in something like Vimeo or Youtube and sharing it as 'those with the link can view'
Band: assignment has been uploaded. Please review and follow instructions. Then upload that video into FreshGrade.

Be sure to watch the math videos for probability - do not skip these! Quiz on Friday.

Check In: Would you rather eat fruits or vegetables and share what your favorite is? Fruit is definitely sweeter but I go for veggies more often. I love mixed roasted vegetables (carrots, sweet potato, squash done in the oven).
Week Long Project: - Core Competency Self Reflection - see Assignments - due Friday 3:00. Make sure you have a comment in each of the 3 core competencies in FreshGrade.
Math: - see Assignments - June 10 - there are two documents in one Assignment - "Support" doc is to help set up question 1 and 2 - Be sure to watch the videos that are on the assignment - you will not get the concept without doing so.
