What's Happening: 11.29.10

13 Days, 58 pages: who will survive?

Hope everyone had a restful Thanksgiving weekend. Though we had three very cold mornings, the weather was pretty good.

We will be having a staff meeting 20 minutes into the period. At that time, you are to come to the meeting area with a list of what you are responsible for on this deadline. You must be specific. It will not be enough to say "I'm doing the Underwater Basket-weaving spread." You will need to list EXACTLY what still needs to be done. If you're missing photos, you will also need captions. You need a credit line for the story. You need headlines and sub-heads. Please list every thing that YOU need to do on a piece of paper. You will turn that paper in.

Since we're close to a major deadline, you are expected to be in the room at lunch whenever it is open. Roll will be taken. It will be open today. 

There are two major international news stories brewing. Both of them had major developments yesterday. What are the two counties at the center of these stories? Get a Post-it note, put your name on the Post-it along with the names of the two countries and put it on the door behind Wojo's desk. This is an assignment.


Worknight is December 10 immediately after school until the cows come home. Well, actually, it will be after that time since cows come home at dark. So, really, it's until 9 or so.
