  1. Morning everybody. Happy Thursday
  2. today.
  3. Not so much today. Only four items.
  4. So you're gonna read a quick article and
  5. it's just regarding the importance of community.
  6. And then there are two videos. So one is about a young man from Charlo named Terence.
  7. And
  8. the third one is a speech that Denzel Washington gave.
  9. So those two videos are more inspiring ones, uh two different stories.
  10. Um One graduation speech. Um
  11. And then you are doing the second summ I know
  12. some of you have reached ahead and you've completed that.
  13. Awesome.
  14. But if you watch this video and think, oh, I need to go back, please go back to it. OK.
  15. Uh There was a great question on kind of what is the difference between
  16. the 2nd and 3rd part. Um And so
  17. when you are doing that, when you're talking about the individual,
  18. it's really what is
  19. their action? Why are they doing this and why does it matter to them? Why is this
  20. a passion project for them
  21. when you're talking about impact though,
  22. you want to talk about community? So how is a person's actions impacting others?
  23. And that could be locally, it could be across Canada.
  24. It could be maybe there's a student
  25. um in pe I reading about something that someone did in
  26. Calgary and they're inspired to do something in their community.
  27. So you want to think about impact
  28. and when you are writing,
  29. you wanna aim from at three points. So think of a simple paragraph.
  30. When you do, for example, you're always looking for three points,
  31. three body paragraphs at this point.
  32. Um I know you're in grade 10, but it is an open level course, right?
  33. So if this was an IB or a pe class, um, if your school has those, then yes,
  34. I would be asking for more, but it is open level.
  35. So it's kind of the standard practice
  36. of if it was a paragraph.
  37. If it was an essay, sorry, you'd be doing a five paragraph essay.
  38. So those body paragraphs. So think body paragraph. I
  39. OK. So three examples. Um, you don't need more than that. Ok.
  40. But that's really the difference.
  41. So what is the person doing and what is
  42. the impact of those things and tying them together?
  43. And as some of, you know, from your first summer of feedback,
  44. make sure that when you're doing this,
  45. this course and especially careers when we get there, it is about you.
  46. Ok. So you wanna add why this person for you?
  47. What was it a bit then that caught your attention? OK.
  48. The other thing is that some of you who have asked about,
  49. can I do someone who has passed on?
  50. Absolutely,
  51. you can for sure do someone who has passed away. However, I would make sure that you
  52. give speak to.
  53. Why are we still interested in that person?
  54. Why is this person still so inspiring to other people
  55. in terms of the actions they did for the common good
  56. if and potentially tying them to current day advocates? Ok.
  57. So if you're gonna talk with someone who has passed on and done something in the past,
  58. make sure you pull it forward to current modern day significance.
  59. OK.
  60. Um And if you're doing someone for today, don't worry about that part.
  61. All right.
  62. So that's it for today. So reading the article two videos complete that summ.
  63. All right.
  64. So if you have reached ahead and again,
  65. make sure you have what you want to do.
  66. All right.
  67. But in the files for today, I have uploaded three exemplars.
  68. So there are three and there are two files for each.
  69. So one is like the infographic, um one is the slideshow
  70. and then the other part is like their references and kind of their research page.
  71. So you can see how if, if you did the work two days ago, your research page,
  72. how that then turns into a product and then
  73. also making sure your references are done properly.
  74. So that is it for today. Uh We are almost there tomorrow. It's a few things.
  75. Let me just check here tomorrow is,
  76. yeah, um only four things.
  77. And really if you did the learning skills, self assessment,
  78. you've already done that.
  79. Um
  80. So there's two articles
  81. working on the final summ
  82. and a self assessment for tomorrow. That's it.
  83. Um And for the final assignment, so that
  84. uh chart you've been working on,
  85. you're gonna end up picking a couple of those items to speak to.
  86. There is no exemplars for that.
  87. So summ two and sum of one have exemplars.
  88. The final thing, we do not have exemplars for yet.
  89. But if you've been adding notes to that final slides presentation,
  90. then you will be good to go.
  91. All right. So that is it. That is all as always.
  92. If you have any questions, please let me know.
