Announcements:
- The last day for any late work is Friday, January 8th!
- All work not completed by then will remain a zero.
- Any work assigned after then is due the same day.
Objective:
- Students will create a series of photos as they explore spaces throughout the school.
1:30-1:40: Start of Class
Students will find their assigned seats and be walked through the process for logging into the computers.- Today we will not be using the computers, as that would take time away from using the cameras.
- Students will go to the front of the class, where Mr. Smith will walk them through the assignment for the day.
1:40-2:20: Instruction & Student Work
- Students will work on a digital photography lesson.
- Rubric, Objective, Standards, and links can be found here.
- Today we are beginning our unit on Photography with a "Photo Walk."
- Each student will be handed a camera and shown how to press the shutter to take a photo.
- Students will then be escorted through the building and encouraged to take pictures of (almost) anything they think is interesting.
- Students should not take photos of people or other people's art. There can be merit in those activities, but that is not part of this lesson.
- By the end of the walk each student should have a minimum of 10 photos. (In practice the number of photos per student is usually much, MUCH higher.)
2:20-2:30: End of Class
Students will showcase their work to their peers before shutting down their computers and lining up to return to their classroom.- Students will return their cameras to Mr. Smith so the images can be processed for the next lesson in the unit.
