Homework
None
Today we had an offbeat warmup designed to shake the kids creativity up a little bit. Then we graded the Elements of Stories tests we took yesterday. As a reward for their good work on the tests, I showed two short films by Pixar. Over the course of the year we will see all of the Pixar short films, which are excellent examples of telling a story without any dialog.
Just a note that although we have the students help score the tests, I do the final grading. And of course, students are always allowed to challenge any grade they feel is not correct.
