Learning target: We can define what beautiful work looks like for our group project assignment
We're going to take a work day to get all our assignments set for the group project and have questions answered for the term paper, which you'll start to write on Monday.
Before break you'll meet in your project groups. The 1872 Mining Law group will prep questions for the representative from Earthworks, which they'll jump on a Skype call with at 9:00 a.m. The event group will decide on whether to partner with the Voices of the Animas group. The art group will keep brainstorming their individual and group art project. I will drift and finalize the jobs spreadsheet that we started on Wednesday. Once you are set on your job and when you need to get these things done, you'll define for me what beautiful work is. I'll type this up and work on an assessment that we can agree on.
After break we'll watch the speech by Representative Paul Ryan, who now appears to have the support he needs to become Speaker of the House. He talks a lot about "common sense" in his speech, which is a conscious shout out to Thomas Paine of the Revolutionary War period.
You'll also take this survey from Ashley Carruth about culture at Animas that will help us continue to move the school is a strong direction.
I also want to check in with each person about their plan for the their essay, the evidence you want to use, and give you your rubric so you know what you're writing to.
Homework for the weekend
If you have a group project assignment that needs doing, try working on it now. You can also do some freewriting or outlining so on Monday you have a direction for your essay.
