Class Scribe: May 6th

written by Cata, acting as class scribe
     
      Today we started off the class with a do now that consisted in reading some vocabulary words for scripts and identifying a part of a script. Then, we had to write down how screenplays are written differently than novels. I noticed that Layla, Takuma, Dominik, and Priscilla got started right away, so shout out to them. After we jotted down what we saw, we discussed with our partner and later on with the class. Some of the vocabulary words that were on the do now were,

Layla working on the do now

slugline; this tells the reader of the script where and when the scene takes place.
action; these are the essential details of the scene and sets the scene, describes the setting, and allows you to introduce your characters. ex: the room is filled with students in desks.
dialogue; this is used when anyone on screen speaks like a conversation between characters, a characters out loud or to himself, or when a character is off-screen and only a voice is heard.
parentheticals (aka "wrylies"); and attitude, verbal direction or action direction from the actor who is speaking the part.
       After the do now, we began working on our film scenes and making them into screenplays. I noticed that Matt stayed on task and was always working hard, so good job. Apart from that, good job Luisa and Sofia posing while I was taking Matt's picture, we have a Brazil's next top model! When were worked on the screenplays, you had to watch out to make sure that you followed the guide lines because some one else would have to follow your screenplay and act it out, so it's easier if everyone writes it the same.
      Finally, we closed our computers and it was time to go.

    After that we are moving into discussion questions and we met with a partner to identify what is a good sentence starter, if you don’t know how to. 

    Finally, we are asking clarifying, critical and deep question about a picture. We are reading a text about the Triangle factory fire and asking clarifying and critical/ deep questions about the text.

Big Learning Target 1.0 

I can evaluate the extent to which industrialization benefits societies by analyzing evidence from a variety of sources. 

Guiding questions: 

How does  industrialization benefit harm societies?

How can writing create change? 

               We started of with the do now which is about journalism, then we started the quiz quiz trade. After quiz quiz trade we pulled out our Rise Of Industry which talks about what happened March 25 1911 in The Triangle Factory, New York and highlighting the most important things in the text. 

          Now we are talking about paraphrasing and quotes, one student said that paraphrase is when you put a piece of text in your own words. Another student said that a quote is when you use the exact words of a texts in your writing and use quotation marks to show what was the quote. 

   We are now starting to write our RAFTS: Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire we have to choose if you want to write about 

You are a journalist, and you are writing an editorial that commemorates the 25th anniversary of the Triangle Fire.  Some of your readers do not remember the significance of the tragedy.  In your editorial, explore the historical, political, and/or cultural significance of the fire. Or You are an art historian whose specialty is early 20th Century American photography.  You have been asked to write a Foreword to a book of photographs depicting the Triangle Factory Fire.  The purpose of this book is to capture the significance of the event and its impact on the American Labor Movement.  Consider the photographs included in the gallery, and write a Foreword that illustrates how these images forcefully portray the Triangle Fire event.  

Homework: Boys Without Names chapters 1-3 and do the Literature Circle 1 paper.

Picture of Catalina's Do Now

On our Do Now, we had to go back to any of our readings that we read this quarter and find a specific date. After finding the date, we had to jot down why that date was important and which reading you got it from. The picture to the right is of Catalina's Do Now. She did a great job in finding relevant dates in our readings this quarter. 

Screenshot of Quick Write 

Quick Write 2:

Our objective for our second quick write was to study an image and pretend you are a bystander (someone watching this event happen).  Think about where you would be standing, what you would be doing, and how it would affect what you saw.  Describe this picture as if you were explaining what you saw to someone who wasn’t there.  Make sure you use sensory details, clear descriptions, and transitions that show movement through space. You also had the freedom to choose which kind of format you wanted to write.

Picture of revising the paragraph

Writer's Workshop: Adding in sensory details + special transitions:
We received a sheet of paper on which was a descriptive paragraph. It was describing a picture of a young woman in the Soweto uprising. We had to revise the paragraph by adding more descriptive words and phrases. After we were done revising, the paragraph sounded much better than before. 

The picture we described in the paragrapg
