What happens when a Google Certified Teacher takes a job behind the Great Fire Wall? I thought the answer to this would become less ambiguous after a few months in China, but surprisingly the answer's still not so clear. What is definitive is that the blogs I've been using for my various classes for more than a few years are now in a Han Solo-cryogenic state of hibernation.

The evidence of tech integration in my previous classes spoke for itself through my students' sharing of work, ideas, and products. Now, so much of the publishing stage of their work is on internal servers, that I feel the need to document this somewhere. So if in effort to share some of the potentially cool, and not so cool, things going on in my classes, I'll be using this blog (recycled grade 12 site) as a platform of productivity, a professional page, a pyt of a pln, and all sorts of sordid alliteration.

Screencasting - Lord of the Flies Mask & Monologue - Characterization and Rationale

Nice, multi-component summative dealing with characterization. 
- Analyze for characterization 
- Create a mask that is representative of a principal character 
- Write a rationale justifying artistic and symbolic elements and where in the narrative these characteristics and concepts are derived 
- Write a sixty-second monologue from your character's perspective, 1st person POV 

Pretty cool final products and some of the masks, both three-dimensional and digital were very well done.
