*Dear Journalism 3,

This was a rough week. The district computers were down, and you still managed to pull off two great productions.

I have to be honest, I was very nervous on Monday. No teleprompters, no graphics, no digital elements were working....Once I announced this, the entire class was silent. People immediately grabbed the scripts and started practicing. The camera people huddled together and came up with a game plan. They coordinated with the director and floor director to try to make the production work.

People who had computer jobs helped in other areas.

The greatest part of this, I didn't have to yell, tell you what to do or point like a crazy teacher...........YOU ALL WORKED TOGETHER TO MAKE A NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE SITUATION POSSIBLE!!

However, your efforts did not stop there, you made sure enough people were present to pull off production on Wednesday. (Thank you for giving up the fair....this is dually noted in my grade book!)

A special thank you to Mike C., Matt S., Nichole M. and Sam G. for getting the script and weather graphics finished during a very difficult situation.

What's Happening girls, your project was great! Keep up the good work.

As for the Campbell report: I am very disappointed that it did not get finished. I was under the impression that it was complete. No one informed me that there was still work to do. (I would have assigned people to help you!!) Needless to say, this WILL NOT happen again. WE DON'T MISS DEADLINES!!

On a brighter note, the class created amazing short projects!

BRAVO!

Let's keep up the momentum.

Here's looking forward to next week!
Mrs. C.

*NOTE FROM MRS. CHRISTIAN

Monday went well. I was very proud of the effort put forth by the entire class. Small mistakes were made, but the class worked as a team and produced a clean production.

During production, it was really nice to see people helping each other! The production was one of those moments that make teachers step back and say, "This is the reason I became a teacher!!!"

Keep up the good work. Your production will get better each time.....So, here's looking forward to AMAZING!
