AP Lit: Bradstreet and The Hours

We'll open with setting up our Google Drive IN folders.  This is something we should have done months ago.  Turn in your Frankliners.

From there, we look at Anne Bradstreet's "To My Dear and Loving Husband."  We will SCOUT this poem, a technique we have not used for a while.

We'll use that work with Bradstreet as an in-roads to the three protagonists of The Hours and the key paragraph for each.

Humanities: Joni James Photography Workshop Day Two: Critique

Today in class, Joni James will return to work with us on our Capture Our Culture photo essay design challenge.  We're in the middle of Experiment phase here.   (Note:  We didn't complete Empathy phase as intended this week.  That's on me.  I have a plan though.  It could bring us some interesting feedback and understanding.)

We'll focus on critiquing photos today to improve upon the composition skills Joni provided us last week.  Here are the notes she gave us.
