PERIOD 6 MOS TEST and AD and Warning - April 18 and Ongoing...

On Friday, April 18, Period 6 lost the privilege to see the very popular movie, "Freedom Writers" and the movie was cancelled, due to unacceptable behavior by a few students. As a result not only was the movie cancelled, but the awards to go to a couple of the students involved also were forfeited. There will be no awards ceremony for Period 6 at this time.

Students were assigned a research project about the movie. It was counted as a "TEST".

RE: The movie "Freedom Writers"...
1. What is it about?
2. Where does the story take place? What do the characters do for a living?
3. Who wrote the story that became a film? Was it based on a true story?
4. Who stars in the film? Anyone famous? Anyone you have seen before?
5. Did the film win any awards? Explain.

Include at least one photo of the film.

Next, turn your test answers and photo, into a poster designed to promote the film to your class.


There is no guarantee Period 6 will ever see the film as a class, at this time.

Note: Numerous students were not in their assignned seats on Friday, without permission to move. Students must remain seated in their assigned seats and not to move without permission, and if students do not move to a seat when told to do so by Ms. K., they will potentially get marked absent, and they will receive no credit for attendance and they will lose participation points.


Gross disrepect of the rules of the computer lab, which includes damaging school property, causing harm to students or teachers, verbally assaulting or physically assaulting the students or teachers, and their property, and being out of one's assigned seat without permission, eating and drinking, leaving papers and garbage at the computers, chewing gum at the computers, not logging off and shutting down and clearing one's space and pushing one's chair in under the desk five minutes prior to the end of class, and not returning the text or other materials to their collection points, will result in calls home and a failing grade. No one touches the phone, nor any items without direct instruction and permission from Ms. K.

Friday, April 18, 2008 - April 27, 2008 Periods 7 & 8

AIM: How does the film "Freedom Writers" inspire us?

If you aren't going anywhere, where would you like to go and what would you dream of doing if you had unlimited funds?

LP: Today Please look at the winners posted. we will examine the winning projects individually. We will also return to our History of Money mega-projects and use the skills developed since we started it to improve the slides and advance them with use of the slide show menu items of slide transitions and timing and animation schemes. We will also include java/animated art clips from the Internet by right clicking on them and saving them to our picture file first. (If they are copyright protected we will be unable to do so.)

Key questions for motivation: What did we learn about setting up a slide show with the previous assignment? Why do we have to save slide show settings? Why do we apply to all the settings sometimes? Why might we vary them? Why do we save pictures in our picture folder before using them in our work?

Note: certificates will be prepared and distributed today and tomorrow.

Wednesday, April 16, 2008 Sports Marketing Period 8

AIM: How will we establish a public relations action plan?

DO NOW: The Pope is in Washington, DC and will be visiting NYC this week. Is he a celebrity? If you were representing him, as his PR agent, what would you try to do to promote his image and the image of the Church in a positive light while in the USA? What ideas would you suggest to him for visits and would he hold a press conference? What would he talk about? Think about it with your PR Agent hat on today. Be as detailed as you need to be.

Key Questions: Is the Pope really a celebrity? What is a celebrity, Why would the Pope need a Public Relations agent or firm? What does a Public Relations agent or firm or publicity agent do for a celebrity? Give examples. If the Pope was coming to MBHS for a visit tomorrow, do you think the school would want to get the news into the media, like television news and newpapers and on its web site? Also, asked and discussed with students: What is a press release? Who does it go to? Who sends it to the media? What media and how is it sent. If a celebrity, like the Pope or a sports or television celebrity, for example is involved in negative activity, why would having a Public Relations agent, or firm, or Publicity agent need to do? (Keep the media from publicizing the negative news, but using contacts in media to suppress it, and to offer news of other clients or other agents' clients as a "trade". ) What would an action plan for the Pope include, if you were the PR agent for the Pope?

LP: Today we will finish our assignment of yesterday, and we will review the answers to the questions and section reading, Chapter5 in the text. Students were responsible INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS NOT GROUPS OR PAIRS to send ProfessorKLK@aol.com the Horse Whisperer answers to questions 1 and 2, two days ago, (p. 99) and to do the questions in the yellow and green boxes on pages 101, 102 and 103 and send them to Ms. Kirshner via email. Students are reminded the work done by one, if not a group project assigned as such will get the credit given only to the one student from whom it comes via email. The alternative is to split the credit and the grade two or three ways. Classwork, unless specifically directed, is not for one person to do and put the names of others on it, while the others do other class projects for other teachers. Students who have had temper tantrums thinking it will get them off the hook are wrong. Points are lost and grades drop as a result of challenging the teacher and the rules of the class to which all students signed a contract.

Those students caught working on other projects and advised to cease and desist, will get a zero for the day's work, counted as a classroom participation and quiz grade, as questions were asked as a quiz in class as well. To repeat the class rules: Please note, there is no talking,no eating, no chewing gum, no drinking, no playing music, ipods, or using cell phones in class. If a student needs help, the student is required to raise his or her hand and if addressed will receive assistance at that time.

On Thursday, there is a quiz of the section of Chapter 5 covered, and on Friday there is a chapter test. You must be present and take the quiz and test. If absent it is a zero for the grade on the one or both missed. There are no makeup quizes or exams. It is at the teacher's discretion and the policy from the beginning. Late work is downgraded by ten points first day late, fifteen second day, 20 third day, and just credit on day 4 and zero points on days after that. Work must be on time.

Wednes., April 16, 2008 MOS

AIM: How will students use the Set Up Slide Show menu and submenus in PowerPoint to animate and transition slides?

DO NOW: When you prepared your slide show and used the animation scheme selections and the Transition of slides selections in the Set Up Slide Show menu, why did you select the transition you did, and why did you select the animation that you did? Note, you were told to "apply" the same to all. Do you think there is a reason to apply the same to all of the slides? Why? (Think about the viewer seeing your presentation).


Today we wll review your reponses to the Do Now.

Note, Today students will show their presentations of "Coco, the Love Dog's Great Adventure at Murry Bergtraum High School" slide show in the contest. The best in class will win chocolate and a first place certificate, then there is second place and third place/Honorable Mention. Students should have completed 6 slides, unless otherwise directed.



The competition is today!!! Who will our winners be?




HOMEWORK: The Pope is in Washington, DC. If he was coming to Murry Bergtraum HS for a visit, what would you want to show him about the school and yourself and classmates? Think about the most important things you'd want him to see and that you would put on three Powerpoint slides. He wouldn't be here long, and would only have time to view the show so you could show three slides.

The letter should be typed in MS Word and make sure to follow a business letter format, and you can print it out today if it is spell checked and sign it.

Today’s Lesson Plan:


Let’s go to Coco’s website. It should be http://www.cocothelovedog.com and if that isn’t it, google the name: “Coco the love dog”…. Read about Coco and Sue, and what they have been doing in “Cause Marketing” and prepare a small PowerPoint slide show featuring Coco and call it “The Adventures of Coco, the Love Dog and Sue G. at Murray Bergtraum High School.” Remember, Coco is diabetic, and how old? In dog years that’s ? and she barks to tell Sue she wants what? You can search for photos of the school building online, and of Coco or other standard white poodles to complete your project.

We can send the best presentations to Estee Lauder and to Sue G. and Coco to show them how important their visit was to us.

This is a small, and fun project, using your creativity. You can alternatively create a rap song an type it out on slides, with illustrations, or a poem. You can be as creative as you desire with this project.

Regarding the Presentations for SportsMarketing p.8

Students who refuse to participate in the required PRESENTATION and who are given an opportunity to switch order position with another team, will be penalized with a failing grade for the entire project. Sharing the labor of the project with your partners, having printouts of the project, and planning and rehersing presentations were all given time and consideration. Not presenting due to refusal or missing parts, tells me one thing: You didn't do the work and you are not prepared and not coooperative either. You cannot submit the written report and not present it in class as well, for teacher and peer evaluation.

As pointed out many times, we do not print in the classroom. If you need to print, you can print at home, in another classroom, or in the school library. Do not wait until the moment of your presentation to start complainining that you have no plan.
