Scribe 3/30/15 Period 1

Today on the first day back from spring break we had a work day.

• First we finished watching Stranger than Fiction since we had 15 min. left of it that we didn't finish on Friday before break.    
• After we had the rest of class to work on our summary response that will be due Wed. April 1st.  or our Last Lecture part 2 that is due on Friday April 3rd.  

For the Summary Response:

• One paragraph is the summary, one paragraph is the response 
• 1 1/2 pages double spaced 
• In the summary paragraph explain what happened in the movie (summarize)
• In the response paragraph TAKE A POSITION AND STATE WHY

For the Last Lecture part 2:

• This part is about your lasting legacy at Arapahoe High School
• Include your theme in part 2 you wrote on the top of your first last lecture 

Also... We got copies of Brave New World so be sure to get a copy if you didn't next class!

Scribe for Monday March 9th

In class we had a whole period to work on our Dr.Phil/Frankenstein performances.  Presentations will be on Friday so come to class rehearsed and ready to perform.

• Make sure to print out a copy of the script to turn into Mrs. Smith and copies for all your group members to read from, you will not be required to memorize the script
• Follow the blue handout on the format for the script
• Some groups began practicing stage directions, don't neglect this. There will also be more time to work on wed. 
• It is VERY important we create amazing presentations because if we impress Mrs. Smith we will watch a movie instead of doing a science paper

For Wed: Have a plan on what your group will be working on this is the last day in class work time will be available.  Also, Class starts at 12:00 because of PARC.  Class will be shortened (we have 42 min).

And don't forget about your LL2 those are due in April!

Frankenstein Dr. Phil project:

-If the projects are very good, instead of doing the very long science essay the class will watch the movie Stranger Than Fiction.

-Projects should be more in depth than the example clips show.

-Commercials are preferred to be creative.

-Make sure the script comes to a resolution of some sort, no storming out.

Homework: Work on script, presentation next Friday.

Ben Newell

Agenda:

• Set up appointment to go over LL1, By thursday.
• Check grades for parent teacher conferences
• Fishbowl Frankenstein ending.
• Intro to Dr. Phil Frankenstein project.
• Some PARCC info

Fishbowl ideas:

Can the monster be good?

• He tried, but humanity rejected him.

-The monster taunts Victor in the final chase.

-Monster just wants a bro.

-Victor is a coward.(runs from initial creature and bails on the female creature)

Can the creature be a victim even if he kills?

• Most of his motivation comes from his abandonment, so even though his killings aren’t fully justified, the monster is not totally to blame.
• Victim of abandonment, but enjoys killing so he is not a good being.

Dr. Phil Project:

-Must have a Dr. Phil, Frankenstein and Monster.

-No storming out in act, must be constructive.

-Present on either Wednesday or Friday of next week depending on PARCC schedule.

Examples of Dr. Phil:

trailer One side Other side Dr. Phil’s talk

Homework: Work on Dr. Phil Script.
