Today is Earth Day!
However, as a class you voted to have a regular class this period so I showed up prepared to teach you. The majority of you opted to not show up at all even to have your attendance taken and kindly ask if you could re-locate.
Needless to say I am more than slightly disappointed with the disrespect. If you ask me to have a regular class on the day you have a choice in the very least it would be nice if you would come and tell me that you have chosen to not participate. I show you all significant amounts of respect on a regular basis and would appreciate your respect in return.
On that note, Arpita you had scheduled your conference date as today... we will have to make alternative arrangements as it is not acceptable to simply opt out of this activity. It is graded as a part of your mark for this unit. Let that be a message to the rest of you if you KNOW that you cannot make it to your conference date ahead of time you need to reschedule it in order to not be penalized academically.
Furthermore, your journals are due tomorrow FRIDAY APRIL 23, 2010 if your journal is not in by 4pm it will not be getting marked.
Journal Entry:
Please title your journal entry "A Piece of Fiction - name" (do not put name, put your name whatever it may be for example if it were me writing a journal I would title it "A Piece of Fiction - Miss. Storkey) some of you are wise guys...
Then proceed to journal about the following topic:
Is fiction easier or harder to write than reality or an autobiography and why? Reflect on your own process and challenges you have already faced or can foresee facing in the future while writing your fiction.
Length: You should aim to write 500 words or more please.
That is all....
Have a great Earth Day!
