"Baptism of Christ" from the Saint John Altarpiece by a Dutch master, circa 1510
A few notes for the week:
READ FEEDBACK: Make a point of looking over the feedback you have received on your work up 'til now. Teachers will expect you to make changes based on that feedback in a more forceful way in the new semester. Read it, make changes, and ask questions to be sure you are doing things right.
HIGHER STANDARDS: Be prepared for your teachers to enforce higher standards for participation and homework in the second semester. At this point, you know well what is expected: this makes learning and task completion easier, and enables the enforcement of a higher standard. Let us all rise to the challenge!
TIP of the MORNING: As you make your way through the tasks of this week with a fresh and rested outlook, take a minute to ask yourself, "Did the way I approached this before work well?" If the answer is "NO," try a new approach.
YEARBOOK PHOTOS: Today (Monday) is the deadline for photos for the yearbook. Find the upload in the League course suite. Teachers - you too!!
LEAGUE, ACT II COMPLETION: The last of the Act 2 challenges is posted. Completion will be tallied for Act 2 at the end of this unit, so be sure to wrap things up and mark your completions.
