Alright guys!  You ready for your last assignment OF THE YEAR???
You will find the link below.  I know I am not here on the first day of this assignment and you might have questions.  Please write them down and ask me tomorrow, but you must still begin working today.  Create your folder on the drive and begin saving items in there for this assignment.  Juniors, this will be very beneficial to you next year.  The first part of this assignment is something you will already have a lot of info on from other projects this year.  There is just a little extra info needed about housing and stuff.  I look forward to going over all of this with you tomorrow, but for today please stay on task and get started.  BE IN YOUR ASSIGNED SEAT and get to work.  No entertainment sites until my stuff is complete.  Thank you and see you on Tuesday.

These next two weeks you will be distinguishing between scholarships and grants.  You will identify different kinds of scholarships and grants, and acquire the skills needed to apply for these things.  Please recognize and abide by the DUE DATES!!!

FYI...When trying this out, I liked Piktochart but you may research and do whatever you like.  Have fun with it.  This is a GREAT tool for college! 

I will allow you to pick a partner or work individually on this project. This means it should be good!  Each person should do their part OR DO NOT PICK THEM AS A PARTNER!

This week you will determine where you stand in regards to the admission process with colleges of their choice.

You will become knowledgeable about what you have left to complete.

Let me remind you, I have NOTHING to do with how well you do in this class.  You have your assignments and your due dates. If you do not comply with these requirements, the grade you receive is the one you EARNED.  I will not take excuses.  You want respect and to be treated like an adult, then I will have to ask that you begin acting like one and fulfill your duties.  The choice is 100% yours.

The spreadsheet should be filled out and PRINTED by Thursday (16th) at the end of class.
The blog is due (with all questions answered) at the end of class on Friday (17th).

Welcome back, juniors and seniors!!!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter with their family.  We have 7 weeks left (6 for seniors) so lets push through and end on a good note PLLLLEASE:-)).
This week you are analyzing the worth of a degree here in the U.S., as opposed to the worth of that same degree in another country.  Seems irrelevant, but a lot of you will be surprised.

A few things to notice...
1. You should play Spent at least 3 times (more if you want).
2. Your presentation must be on Prezi.
3. You are creating 2 haikus (not just 1) and printing them on ONE document with names.

On a final note...Have fun with this and don't go into it with negative thoughts.  Remember, you have all the control when it comes to your attitude!
