  1. This is the last day of the Quarter and our 8th Critique Day of the school year. No video should be needed to explain today's objectives.
  2. Objective:
    1. Students will critique at least 10 of their peer's projects to help increase everyone's skill with digital media.
  3. Warm-Up:
    1. 2025-01-24: Warm-Up: Get started on your critiques.

        1. 6th Grade
        2. 7th & 8th Grade
    2. Warm-Ups are usually a 5 point Independent Work grade if a written response is expected, or a 5 point Assessment grade if the Warm-Up is a quiz. They are due at the start of class and not eligible for late submission or re-submission.
  4. Announcements:
    1. "Arcade Day" at the end of the month.

      1. January's Arcade Day is scheduled for Thursday, January 30th! THIS WILL ALSO BE A T-SHIRT PRINTING DAY!
    2. Students remain eligible unless a Notice of Concern has been earned that month for grades or behavior, though a student who missed out from low grades can earn back their Arcade Day privileges if they bring their grade back up.
      1. Check Canvas - if your avg is 70% or above, you're probably eligible.
    3. Ineligible students should be working on a project re-submission or their next project.
    4. Arcade Days do not change project deadlines! All work is still due!

The 4th project of each Quarter is not eligible for re-submission due to its proximity to the end of the Quarter!
  10. Deadlines for future projects are not adjusted. Students are encouraged to not put off starting Project 4 because they've decided to work on redoing Project 3 from scratch.
