Wednesday, May 18th - Periods 5, 6 & 7

Professional Literacy: Day 7

Do Now: Are you “comfortable in your own skin”?  Are you confident as an individual all the time?  Or, are you some times self-conscious of what others are thinking?

Critical Thinking Questions: Where do we feel comfortable being ourselves?  Do you try new experiences and opportunities or are you hesitant about what others think?

Content: “Getups” by Maya Angelou (Page 93 - Multicultural Voices)

Objective: We will recognize ways in which we are limited by our images of ourselves and how that may impact experiences that we participate in. Then, we will write a resume draft that represents extra-curriculars that we have been involved with.

Class Activities: Do-Now Discussion, Reading Getups, Reflection, Resume Writing

Homework: In class, we prepared your resume.  Upon reflection, what are extra-curriculars, activities, or other work experience you will want to add to your resume before you are a senior?
