Weekly Update

We have had many absences due to the flu this year.

If one of my journalism or English students is absent, the first place they should look for make up work is my wiki. I update it several times each day, and it has everything we do in class, including PowerPoints and handouts for download.

This Week in Class

• In English I this week, we are starting a Greek Mythology WebQuest. The whole project is available on-line. Here is the link, so you can check it out.
• In Journalism I, we are writing a news/feature story. Since it is our first, the students are doing it together as a group. We are starting with story planning and I hope to have interviews scheduled and conducted by the end of the week. You can find more details at the wiki.
  
• In Yearbook, we are making the final push for deadline one. The students are doing a great job. Be sure to congratulate your son or daughter for working hard. They all are.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please e-mail me at lhearnsberger@newbraunfels.txed.net.
