​Today:

I checked students responses about movie trailers and yesterday's topic (period 1- news stories, Period 4- children's tv shows), as these were for homework. I did not get to check in with period 2, as they attended an assembly. As well, period 3 is working on watching a documentary instead, and their responses about this are due tomorrow.

Also today in class, with Periods 1 and 2 we had a discussion about social media and the positives and negatives associated with cell phone usage. I introduced students to a documentary called "Screenagers," which, if you can find a way to access it, would be beneficial for both students and parents to watch.

Students in periods 1 and 2 must complete a media opinion sheet about social media and/or cell phone usage before tomorrow.
