Hello and welcome to Online Learning for
Digital Literacy & Expression
- We will watch a film and use it as our common text
- We will respond in writing as we connect the film to who we are and what we know
- We will get together to discuss our ideas in order to make them better
- We will submit our revised analysis for extra credit
- Via Google Classroom
- Via video Flipboard (we think)
. . . . .
- What I can do is reward you for making that choice by making this work be worth DOUBLE the normal amount if you do it well.
- What I don't want to do is assume that your life right now makes it possible for you to do it. So if you can, great, you will get ahead and that is like money in the bank for your grades (and these lessons are going to be fun while being challenging).
- If you don't do these assignments you WILL be missing out on important skills that we will be using as soon as we return. You will be able to pick it up but you won't be nearly as good at is as you could have been.

Learning Target(s)- I can view the film Pleasantville as an informational text
