Hello Students,
Here is your breakdown of the activities that need to be completed by today, Monday, October 17th.
Advisory 12
You can either work on your Ignite skit, get with your Lit Circle groups and create a plan, or see if there are any announcements from Grad Council. Also, ensure you have signed up for your Artona photos for next month if you have not done so yet.

Questions for chapter 2 are due today. Begin chapter 3 and complete the questions for those as well. We will review chapters 2 and 3 tomorrow in class.
Remember to start with an Editing and Proofreading exercise. Today's topic should be The Lure of the Land.
Lastly for today, please complete a one page max response to the question below and turn it in on my desk by the end of class. Paper copies only. In pen. Proper paragraph structure applies, as always.
We've seen how trigger warnings and micro-aggressions are real topics happening in our world and since the start of our 1984 novel we have seen how language can influence thought (re: journal entry 1, chapter 5 of 1984). Now here is today's written response.
How are we to spread the Gospel (Matthew 28:18) that is to say, speak the truth, while being mindful to not offend anyone (2 Corinthians 6:3)?
It seems the Lord call us to do both; but are both possible, how?
Remember what a good paragraph looks like: topics sentence, supporting evidence, transitions, closing statement.

Today you need to update your resume. You need to also spend some time working on your capstone. We will be transitioning to Apologetics in the coming week so take advantage of any time given for Capstone planning that you can get. Things like reaching out to mentors, continuing to find a mentor, researching your topic, thinking of ways to explore your potential future career, updating your weekly activity chart are all things that can be done this morning. Even if you are planning on doing the binder, the first thing you can do is your grad transition plan, or cover letter. These are two items that need to be completed in section one of the binder.
There is work to be done this class, it is just independently led. Be wise with your time.
Drama 10/11
You need to spend this day working on your comedic monologue. It is due on Wednesday. Practice, practice, practice. Do not work on the play for the assembly. That is done, work on your own Knoxian Idol project.

Today was supposed to be the day that we were to share our research topics with other groups but that will have to wait until tomorrow.
For today, please get into the same small groups that you were in on Friday and complete the questions for the poems, or finish the poker poetry. Once that is done, stay in those same small groups and review the starred questions in your group, ensuring accuracy. Lastly, in those same groups complete the last two sections of the handout.
Please send your slides and one page notes to me for today (rloconte@johnknoxbc.org) so I can review them.
There is no other work for today.
