Hi,

Enjoyed everyone’s contributions last Friday and hope you all learned some interesting things about the Common Reading program (https://commonreading.uoregon.edu/ and https://commonreading.uoregon.edu/events/).  One thing we did not discuss in great detail that I wanted to put out there is if you are interested in ways to become more involved with the program (for instance being on the selection committee) let me know and I can connect you with Julie.

Quick reminder that for this week’s session please bring to class your comic book worksheet, any art supplies you may need to work on your comic book (I will bring some extra sketchbooks/paper), and any progress you have made so far on your comic book.

And we will be working on your 2-Year plan.  If we do not get enough time this Friday to really draft out your comic books we will roll in more studio work time next week.  As in be really ready to work on your comic books these next three to four weeks.

Another heads-up and I will have ready this Friday a new Discussion Journal page for our Week 6 discussion, but wanted to let you know that this will be very simple this time around. We will be focused on taking your first two Discussion Journals and looking back at what you have filled in for those sheets and expand on your answers/responses in more detail.  This will allow us to all revisit those first two pages in our upcoming discussions (if this does not make total sense now don’t worry I will explain more in class).

Last reminder and my office hours are tomorrow (Tuesday) from 2:00 to 4:00, and you all now have your Achievement progress sheets so this is a good opportunity to meet with me to discuss your progress and any questions you have for moving forward in the class.  And again if you cannot make it to my open hours please contact me about setting up an appointment time.

Best,

Robert
