Scribe for April 25th - Period 3

In class today, we completed a fishbowl regarding the chapter "Story" in A Whole New Mind, and also turned in Ted 2 before class. Before hand, we also received a tasty treat for winning the fundraiser.

Our Homework included

• Read "Symphony"  in A Whole New Mind due Monday
• Also read the docs Smith has given the class to expand your learning
• Ted 4 due Monday
• The big speech (still a little bit away)
• Ted 3 due tomorrow

• "RSA Animate - Drive: The surprising truth about what motivates us" by Daniel Pink

  
  
  On Mrs. Smith's power point she recommends you follow these guidelines to produce a well written blog post.
  • hyperlinks to original sources
  • refer to author by last name
  • punctuate titles correctly
  • PROOFREAD
  • extensions: need more than just a link, explain and connect
  • Response: react don't summarize
  • overuse of author's name
  • personal words!!!! I, you, me, my, our, we us
  • don't quote in summary- summary is meant to put author's words in your own words to show your understanding not the author's
  • two separate paragraphs
  • posted before class
  • because in response topic sentence
  • lead-in's to quotes
