Dear Humanities Kids,

1. I returned your "Artist's Intent" essays. WELL DONE, my young friends! Students were instructed about the "revision" process. Each time you are given a writing assignment in Humanities, you will always be asked to revise your original paper. The revision IS AN ASSIGNMENT, and goes into the computer as 75 points. If you complete the revision, then 10 points will be added to your original score.

IF YOU DID NOT COMPLETE THE ORIGINAL ASSIGNMENT, "ARTIST'S INTENT," THEN YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO COMPLETE THE REVISION. UNLESS YOU WOULD LIKE TO USE YOUR HOMEWORK COUPON FOR THE ORIGINAL ASSIGNMENT.

2. We returned to your handout regarding ancient Greece, specifically our discussion of the earliest Greeks, the Minoans.

3. Students were then asked to refer to their annotations for today, while they viewed a video that detailed the ancient Minoans. 

Journal 5: "Points of Interests about Minoan Culture"

Please divide your entry in half vertically. On the left write "Movie" and on the right record "Reading." Please list the points of interest you found from the reading. Now a
s you view the video regarding Minoan culture, please list aspects that you found interesting as well.
I look forward to visiting with you.

HOMEWORK:
1. "ARTIST'S INTENT" Revision is due on THURSDAY!
