APELC Class Notes

Objective: APELCers completed a synthesis essay.

As the objective states so you did, juniors and seniors. Today’s essay was a practice essay and you’ll complete two more next class followed my a multiple-choice practice at the end of the week. We’ll complete the worldview presentations the week after this and talk over some final details for the APELC exam on May 12.

I’d mentioned LIFE’s 100 Photographs That Changed the World to students I’ve been conferring with over timed-writing 8. I think that rather than being a limitation to learning, photographs can be an invitation to learning, as I discussed with Ariel during her conference, so I’d encourage you to explore more of nation and world through their photographic histories. Here’re some portals:

The Big Picture at The Boston Globe and The Frame at The Sacramento Bee are two excellent photo blogs that document current events around the world with large, bold images.

REMINDER. Kevin, Kate, and Priscilla, I’d like to borrow your original timed-writing 7 drafts for tomorrow (Tuesday), if I could. Thanks. You’re CDO’s greatest treasures.
