Lesson 10

We started the class with an open floor for questions about commas (anyone absent, or who did not speak up, should make sure to come to tutorial for clarification as needed)

Students who still hadn't completed the work that was due for Monday's class worked collaboratively in the breakout space - Those people should all have handed in typed answers by the end of tomorrow's tutorial.

In groups, students shared their answers. We talked about form/conventions/mechanics - a surprising number of students are still not capitalizing titles and names etc. 

Students got a chance to see the different levels of answers I am often handed - even if the core ideas are the same, the delivery matters. Most have something key to work on.  

All students should refer to the feedback on their work in Teams. A 3/4 represents Proficient. It has no application as a real number. 

We watched the final scene of Jurassic World and Dolly the sheep - this is where we will pickup next day. Students should be reflecting on the various connections to text and the world at large in these additional materials. 

***NB - If students are confused about the connection between today's videos, and the text, hopefully the discussion of the concept of THEME next class will help make it all come clear.
