Monday

Today you guys mostly worked with Zaq on grad projects. I was told that you guys had a chance to share out some of the work you've already done--metaphors, and challenges. Then you all looked at two poems to help make the point CONTENT BEFORE FORM! Some of you feel sure you want to do a song, or yours will definitely be funny, or you will do a story, but you cannot decide that until you have figured out the way you have changed or grown at TBS.

Some of you got to meet with either Zaq or I to finalize your topics, most of you did not. If you did not meet with us, you are still brainstorming ideas. If you did meet with us, then you are working on your project. There is a lot to do. Do not put it off. Start writing tonight.

Friday

8th graders! Grad Project!

On Monday, you guys will be asked to come up with your topic--one way in which you have grown/changed while at TBS. You should marinate on that all weekend.
