LA Update — Week of 10/29

The stories are so much fun to read!  It’s been amazing to see their ideas develop over time.  We also now have a venue for our coffeehouse event!  Join us for an evening of terrific story telling!   Please save the evening — December 12th!
Paul’s Cafe and Tea
956 W Cherry St #101, Louisville, CO 80027
  • Block 1 students will begin reading at 5pm.  (We’ll probably end around 5:45pm)
  • Block 2 students will begin reading at 6pm.  (We’ll probably end around 6:50pm)
The expectation is that all students attend the entirety of the presentation by their specific class (they do not need to attend both classes!).  If for whatever reason, your student is NOT able to attend that evening, please email me as soon as possible.
Additional notes:  
 
1) A bit of a strange week this week.  We’ll have two days focused on writing, one focused on reading, a visit to the DCPA, and of course — a “Halloween Extravaganza” on Wednesday!  Our writing is going to focus on developing a “sense of place.”
 
2) All of CHOICE is off to see “Breakin Convention” on Friday.  Students should dress up for the event.  Here’s a description:  “Curated and hosted by UK hip hop pioneer Jonzi D, this is an awe inspiring weekend of exceptional performances from world champion b-boy crews to cutting edge street dance companies – live on stage.”  And heres the trailer.
3) Please check infinite campus for completion status of assignments.  Upcoming due dates:
Last Friday 10/26:  Checkpoint #1 (which shares where students should be with their story.)
Thursday, 11/1:  Trimester Rubric Self Reflection due via Google Classroom (We’ll be doing this in class on Tuesday)
Have a fantastic week!  -JF
