Opener: In your sketchbook complete the opener described on the board. Try using crosshatch and stipple dots to add value and give your drawings form.

Show your photos to Mrs. Bowen so she can grade them and give you one-on-one feedback.

Make a folder on your Google Drive for 10th Grade, then make a folder for this class. Save all your work to this folder. Alternatively, you can save everything the same way to a Flash Drive.

Work on editing your photos by following the Project instructions. Remember we are a collaborative learning enviornment so if you're having trouble in Photoshop ask a classmate before asking the teacher.

When you have finished editing you will start on your writing. Compose your writing into paragraph format like it was a special interest piece in a newspaper or a magazine. Partner up and read each other's writing, give feedback for grammar, tone and spelling errors.

Closer: Review of what we learned today and what we will do tomorrow.

Learning Objectives: Students will be able to critical evaluate their own photographs and apply new Photoshop editing skills.

Essential Question: Who is in my community that matters to me?
