Don't forget that you must complete a professional development assignment by May 27. This is part of your quarter grade and will make a difference in the final outcome of the grade. Do NOT delay.
Continue working on your projects. Note that the room is closed during lunch all week, so you will need to make the most of your time during class.

I will finish up looking at your projects today. Please have your files open and ready for me to look at. Be prepared to tell me about your work thus far.
All groups should be creating a Google Doc where you can make a checklist of things to do on each of the required spreads. Cross them out as you finish them and put your initials next to that item so you partner knows that you've finished that task. Once you've created the document, please share it with me. I expect to see it filled out and I expect to receive it today. Remember, since it's a Google Doc, you can all work on it at the same time!
Hoodies are here! Or t-shirts or crew neck sweatshirts. This is the design. T-shirts are $10, crew neck sweatshirts are $15, hoodies are $20. If you want a XXL shirt of any type, add $3 to the prices above. Find the order form here. Read the order form for payment instructions. All payments are due no later than the end of first period on Wednesday, May 11.No checks will be accepted (the school doesn't take them). This goes across the front of the shirt, so it's much smaller than actual size. See your editors if they have questions.
