Thursday
For your viewing pleasure: the world's smallest car chase scene
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwL3PEeE0sU
Today you should ensure that you have completed the following responses and placed them in your assignment notebook online.
1. Response to a K. Vermette poem - prompt - beauty in broken things.
2. Response to SLOMO video - prompt about freedom and SLOMO being the guy who got away.
3. Response to a non-fiction article (Steak or Women online) - prompt is to discuss the use of rhetorical devices to persuade/manipulate the reader's opinion.
REMEMBER TO TOUCH ON THE 3 levels of reading in each response.
Wednesday
2. When you get into the lab, copy-paste all of the stuff for your memoir from the collaboration space into your own notebook in our English 12 space. Add a page to your "assignment" section and title it memoir and the date 8.3.2017. I will be deleting your memoir from the collaboration space in the next day or so.
3. Pastoral poetry. Didactic
4. Non-fiction reading today. Remember Pathos, Logos, Ethos from yesterday? Before reading, lets brainstorm a list of rhetorical devices that you can use to convince your reader. For example: imagery.... blue handout
5. Look over the two articles I have placed in the Collaboration space: Women Should Log Off and Steak Shows its Muscles. Get together a small group of collaborators. Create a page in the Collaboration space. Paste a copy of the article into the space. Label the page with some acronym of your names so you can identify it easily. During reading identify as many rhetorical devices as you can by highlighting and typing around the article. You will use this as your plan for the paragraph you will write tomorrow.

BOX
https://vimeo.com/75361102 - I am obsessed with 3D projection mapping. If that interests you, check out "Box". It is 5 minutes long.
1. Reading your term novel.
FYI I have checked everyone's assignment folder. There is only one person who has submitted the Vermette response. Is there is a submission problem? Is it is a question of it doesn't "count", therefore, you are not going to do it (despite being given the better part of a class to work on it)? Let's talk...
2. Pathos, Logos, Ethos - and pastoral poetry...
3. View Slomo again - in the computer room. During viewing this time, take some notes related to each of the three different levels of "reading". After viewing, write a stand alone response of at least 150 words in which you discuss the following: "People who are cheering for SLOMO are cheering for the one person who got away...who escaped and got to real freedom." Discuss the film's depiction of freedom. Make a plan using a t-chart. You can still try to use a few quotes from the film to back up what you are saying - just snippets! Place the t-chart and the paragraph into OneNote, in your assignment folder.
Here are some techniques/features of filmmaking and some filmmaking vocabulary to use when doing the 2nd level "reading" section of your paragraph.
Slomo is a documentary - not fiction - for more info on this short film, read the blurb beneath the video on Vimeo

Monday
1. Reading your term novel.
2. Please ensure your Vermette response is in Office 365 - I will be checking this week for formative mark.

3. SLOMO - before viewing: Stop lights activity: red=stop doing it; yellow=keep doing it; green=start doing it. During viewing: symbol to represent SLOMO and take notes about the 3 levels of reading. After viewing: “The people who are cheering for SLOMO are cheering for the one person who got away… who escaped and got to real freedom.” Discuss the film’s depiction of freedom. Make a plan using a t-chart.
