Christmas Decorations

Hey guys!
As we all know, winter break is around the corner, in 14 days! To help prepare our classroom for the upcoming festivities, we need you guys to bring in any decorations you can. We need ornaments and lights for the tree, to add on to the ones we will be making on Friday.* We also need decorations for the classroom. If you could bring them in by Friday, it would be really helpful. We will also decide between White Elephant and Secret Santa on Friday.

Thanks!!

*We need more ornaments to add on to the ones we will be making on Friday with the pictures we took today. If you haven't taken yours yet, see Ortega ASAP.

Thanksgiving Party Photo

Here are some of the photos Sierrah took during the Thanksgiving Party on Tuesday. Thanks Sierrah!

Week Recap

Here's a recap of this week.

Monday:


• Cans were due and we collected 228 cans with 11N. Ms. Ortega is also turning in 90 more!!
• We voted on our senior sweaters and the finalist is the black one. If you gave Jeanette your size, it means that you intend to buy one, and you will be held responsible. If you do not pay for your sweater, you will be unable to attend Grad Night. The sweaters are $25.
  

Tuesday:

• We presented our mock bills today and everyone did a great job!

• We had our Thanksgiving party, the first house party of many, and it was a huge success. Thanks to everyone who brought in the wonderful food, it was delicious. Also thanks to Cynthia for bringing Grease and to those of you who helped setup. Pictures of the party, curtesy Sierrah, will be up later this weekend. Have a good weekend and holiday. See you on Monday.

Last day to turn in cans is Monday November 22nd at 8AM.

Remember that everyone is supposed to bring in three cans on Monday. this way, we can have a rough estimate so that Ms. Ortega can match us. We will also vote on our final senior sweater. Here are the two choices.
 
or
.

Some information on the sweaters; the purple ones are not as thick as the black ones, thus making them less expensive. If you want an idea about the thickness, take a look at sweaters from '04 to '08 to feel the purple one and look at '09 and '10's for the thickness of the black ones.The sweaters are hanging in Purther's classroom. Final cost updates will be available this week. 

Thanksgiving Party:
 Remember that the Thanksgiving Party is on Tuesday during second block. Drop off any food items in Ortega's classroom before first block. All food need to be 'store bought'. To see what you have signed up for, take a look below.

Have a great weekend!

Label: Research First Semester

Content: 
1. List at least 3 things you've learned since you started working on your senior project.

2. Post evidence of this accomplishment. It can be in the form of a picture, video, document, etc. 


Due 8 A.M. Tuesday, November 16th

Canned Food Drive

Hey North House, starting tomorrow there will be a canned food drive competition for a house point. All the senior houses will be colabarating with a corresponding Junior house. Our Junior house will be 11N. We are Team 4. This food drive will not be an easy task, and it will require a lot of hard work on both sides.

The goal of this food drive is to help the needy living in our area; the unemployment rate is nearly 15%, the highest it's been in decades! Jeanette and the Junior class president will be going around during 3rd block on Wednesday.

For now, we will simply put the cans in our classrooms. However if anyone wants to bring in a box, or decorate one, it would help keep our classroom organized.The last day to turn in cans in Nov. 22nd at 8 AM.

Teams:
Team 1: 11W & 12W
Team 2: 11E & 12E
Team 3: 11S & 12S
Team 4: 11N & 12N

Have a nice night!!

Extra Credit Op for Ortega

Hey guys, this just in from Ortega:

Bring a blanket that you don't mind putting on the ground to help with "Don't Be A Stranger Day"  and you will get a full day of extra credit for a day you weren't as happy with your grade.  I need the blankets tomorrow BEFORE ELECTIVE.

This Just In!

(1) Please remember to review the component contract related to research.  Look at the minimum research requirements.

(2)  The model assembly requires that you have a working bibliography specifically for this project and you margin note or take notes on all research.  Put the research in order of listing of the working bibliography.  Remember to include all work in class and outside of class on this working bibliography and in the margin noted/noted research.

(3) On Friday, bring 3 articles (750 words or more) related to your committee topic (Family, Civil, Crime, or Agriculture) and/or bill.  Feel free to use

• Cal Poly databases you already know
• CQ Electronic Library in the Cal Poly databases
  American government, politics, public policy, & current affairs.
  Access to CQ Researcher & CQ Weekly
• Google

750 words is the goal, but if it is close, it is ok.

Tomorrow, we will be having a regular Thursday schedule, meaning no 4-core. Because there is no 4-core, in conjuction with Scare Faire, there will not be a Research Check. Because Purther won't be in class tomorrow, here is the schedule for his class:

• group activity (Model Assembly)
• read only the summary
3. 20-25 minutes: How A Bill Becomes A Law
• Model Assembly

Here is the link to the site for the Bill Info Activity: http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/bilinfo.html

From Ms. Ortega:

1. Tomorrow is animal ear day.  You could bring Mickey ears, or some other type of animal ear headband.  You could also bring some paper (felt or other material) ears that you have cut out.  If someone can bring a bunch of bobby pins, all we'll need to do is clip the ears onto our hair.
2. Please bring Halloween Decoration materials by tomorrow.  Everyone who does will get extra credit.

From Ms. Melogno:

Google Groups has not let me upload files or change content for the past two days; not surprising because it's always been a buggy product.  I started a GoogleSite to post the documents I promised you in class:  https://sites.google.com/site/ipolyphysics/

Model Assembly Componet 1: Dicovering your Constituents

Title: Model Assembly Component 1: Discovering your Constituency Feedback
Label: Feedback

a. Something positive
• I was impressed with the interviews students pulled off in the short period of time.

b. Questions to consider
• Did all the information each student present help them answer the DQs?
• Did your PowerPoint violate the rule of 3 on any of the slides?

c. What did work
• Many  of the PowerPoints included only photos taken by the students.
• Interviews were useful in most presentations
• The title slides looked good and in most cases the reporter did the intro effectively
• Some groups cited their source as they presented
• Speaker notes in general were fine in most presentations and everybody made the 5 minute minimum

d. What didn't work
• Concluding a paper or a presentation is significant.  Saying you are done is not a conclusion.  How should you conclude?  There is debate on this question.  When I think of concluding, I think of a conclusion including these two parts.
(1) Summarizing the essential points
(2) Finding something of value for future use
• The source slide did not work out how I had hoped. For future presentations, I will be more consistent with the senior project stuff and have you talk about three sources during the presentations versus showing a slide at the end.  I saw this happen in this presentation when you all discussed your interview.
• Not all groups used the rule of 3 (1/3 rule) and the speaker notes effectively
• Consider where you may stand in a classroom before presenting to make sure all students can hear and see you.
• Technology issues:  Check prior to school starting or the day before to make sure there are no issues.

e. Finding Value
• Remember your city!  Your job is to represent the interests of your city in future parts of the Model Assembly.    If necessary, continue to do research on your city as more questions are raised.
• The components build on each other and in the last component (Simulation), you are expected to use the 7 components before in this experience.  This is similar to how I had you work in groups of 6 or 7 at the end of the Xlandia problem and use all the information we learned from prior lessons in the one activity.

House:
Don't forget that this Friday we will be having a house competion, so bring comfy clothes. We will either be playing volleyball or capture the flag. Because we will be playing againest West again, let's give them a run for the money! We will also have a research check on Friday so please bring your 3 sources.

Clubs!
Don't forget that three of our seniors have started clubs on campus.
Be sure to check out the I-poly Companion Club in Ortega's room. Give back to our community by mentoring underclassmen, especially the freshmen. Any quetions? Ask either Ortega or Eric Torres.
Check out the Tutoring Club in Melogno's room everyday in lunch. Be tutored or be the tutor. For details speak to David Rodgers.
Wanna show off your artistic talents? Head on over to the Ipoly Illustraters' Guild in Pang's room. For details contact Pang or Leo Mendoza.

ASB/Senior Fundraising:
Don't forget that our class reps are selling pizza in the quad at lunch every Monday and Thursday. Be sure to buy a slice; the money raised goes towards the senior class. Sierra is also selling muffins on Fridays, the money made will also go towards the senior class. Be sure to buy some during House when all the good ones are still there.

Blog Design

Hello fellow Northerners ;p
It's Cynthia here and I am currently working on the layout for the blog. I would really appreciate some input on what you think of the design so far & I'm open to any suggestions! Thanks!

- Cynthia

Blog Due Monday 8A.M.

I just need to say that you were awesome at the volleyball game today;  I couldn't believe how quickly you caught up.  We really gave West House a run for their money!  We'll be posting some pics early next week, so stay tuned.  Also, email me if you have some fun ideas for how to show our talents in house competitions.  Take care, Lorelei

P.S.  Camping this weekend...will not respond to emails until Sunday evening : )

Title:  Second Interview Questions

Label:  Interviews

What five questions will you ask your service learning mentor?  These questions should help you to learn about your mentor's background as it pertains to your topic.  Please clearly number these, starting a new line for every question.

In addition, please email me an essential question draft by 8 A.M. Monday.  Remember that essential questions must 1) be open ended, 2) take a stance, and 3) ask something that is worth a year's worth of research and crosses disciplines (i.e. make-up artistry might involve art, science, and sociology).  Most questions are worded, "What is the superlative like "best" or "most" + optional adjective like "successful" + a noun like "way" or "effect" of blah, blah, blah."  All together it's something like this, "What is the most beneficial insect to the earth?"

Sup guys, Patty here.

I'm sorry if I do this wrong but i'm doing my best. Here goes nothing.

Hey North house, it's your buddy Patrick here. Just posting some reminders and updates. Let's see what we've got coming up..

Spirit week is this coming week so dress accordingly. Also, your underwear do not qualify for consideration, so for any of the days during spirit week, don't even try it.

• Monday: Stuffed Animal day (pretty self-explanatory bring a stuffed animal)
• Tuesday: Camouflage day (wear something camouflage, and for those who don't know what that is, dress like a soldier)
• Wednesday: Neon day (wear neon colors and stuff. Bracelets, shoes and socks all count)
• Thursday: Animal Print day (wear anything with an animal on it or like zebra stripes/cheetah spots...you get it)
• Friday: Class Color day (If you actually have to ask, leave i-poly)

Some other things to know are that every friday Sierrah Gonzalez is bringing muffins to sell, and every monday and thursday, ASB is selling pizza in the center of the quad.

Also keep an eye out for more information regarding the I-poly Illustrators Guild club that Mr. Pang will be hosting, and the Poetry Club that Ms. Ortega will be hosting. The Senior Project updates should be pretty updated on the other entry. Other than that, have a good night, and I really hope people end up reading this.

Peace
