- Please ensure you see the D2L Newsfeed post from Feb. 16th. It has directions about your reading & if you couldn't get to the bookstore/ library/ order one, it is there in an online link for you to read, FOR FREE; and...here it is AGAIN: http://gnauss.hrsbteachers.ednet.ns.ca/sites/gnauss.hrsbteachers.ednet.ns.ca/files/documents/The%20Crucible%20full%20text.pdf . You only have to read Acts I/II by Tuesday's quiz.
- Teachers & some students will be doing readings by influential black leaders/ authors & telling why they are important to them, personally, in honor of black history month.
- For possible bonus points, try to attend one of the 15 minute readings; they will be going on 11 am-2 pm Tuesday, February 24th (in the student success room). If you go, you MUST take a selfie of yourself at the event & do a video of the speaker you were present for. I realize time wise this may not be efficient for many; however, I will offer several opportunities throughout the semester (such as below). I do not assign a specific point value, so do not ask. I add in points needed to your ACTUAL final grade at the end of the semester or onto specific grades where you were lacking.

- There is also an opportunity for bonus through the UNPLUG & READ event hosted by the library next week (Monday, February 23rd through Saturday, February 28th); however, again, if you participate, you must get a form signed by a librarian saying you were there. After you are done with your reading (not during-since you are to UNPLUG) take an image of the book/work you unplugged to read. I encourage you to hashtag #Motlow #Unplug&Read on your social media pages if you use them (next week).
- If you open the jpg...
and click the print button, it is the same size as a piece of paper! Print in the library & get signed before you leave (after doing the activity-with NO technology on/ near you) :) - Reading is so important! And sometimes putting down our technologies can be freeing.
