To Take a Snip

Be sure the section you want to capture an image of is on your screen.

Press these three keys at the same time:

The windows key

The shift key

The letter "S" key

The screen should turn a shade of light grey, and you should get a cursor that looks like a "+" sign.

Drag the cursor across the section you want to capture.

That should automatically put it on your computer's "clipboard."

Put your cursor where you want that image to go, and then paste the image by pressing the control key and the letter "V" key at the same time.

To learn more about the Snipping Tool, you can watch this video on YouTube.

Over the course of this year, you should have worked with five selections from this choice board.

Now it's time to demonstrate what you gained from that work. You will do that through the Unproject.

Regardless of the form your work takes, it should meet the expectations set forth in the RUBRIC linked below.

While your Unproject can take many forms, below are a few ideas to get you started.

COLLECTION OF ORIGINAL ARTWORK Do you express yourself in art? Maybe you would like to create a collection of artwork reflecting what you learned through the independent learning sections of this course. CLICK HERE FOR AN EXAMPLE created by

SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN Consider all of the texts you worked with in the independent learning sections of English 12. Is there an issue that struck a nerve with you? Consider creating a social media campaign to share what you have learned about that issue. Consider posts for Instagram, TicTok, Facebook, Twitter, etc... There is no example of this yet! Go ahead and knock our socks off!

SOUNDTRACK Consider all of the texts you have read, watched, or listened to in the independent learning sections of English 12 in Units 1-5. Could you create a soundtrack to accompany those readings? Why would you choose the music you would? CLICK HERE FOR AN EXAMPLE created by Nyla McGinnis, Class of 2023. CLICK HERE FOR AN EXAMPLE created by Grace Schock, Class of 2024.

MLA FORMATTED ESSAY Throughout this course, you have been working with MLA format. Continue to use those skills to discuss what you learned throughout independent learning sections this year. You could write your own personal response, do research into something that interested you and explain it, write an argumentative essay about something that you read and feel strongly about, or come up with your own idea. CLICK HERE FOR AN EXAMPLE created by a CCA student in 2022/2023

If this selection is your choice for today, take a snip of this window to put in your Edio lesson.

Watch the video clip to the right.

You will be asked to provide evidence in the Edio lesson for today. For your evidence, summarize Denzel Washington's message. Be sure to write five to seven sentences.

In the next independent learning lesson, you will be instructed to submit ONE of the following assignments. You can begin working on it now if you'd like.

PHOTOJOURNAL Perhaps the selections you chose have historical significance and you would like to relay that history through images and captions which explain them. Maybe the selections made you think of a time or experience in your own life which could be related the same way. Consider making a digital photo journal using PowerPoint, Canva, or another medium. There is no example of this yet! Go ahead and knock our socks off!

COLLECTION OF ORIGINAL ARTWORK Are you particularly artistic? Express what you gained from the independent learning selections by creating several pieces of original artwork that function as a collection. CLICK HERE FOR AN EXAMPLE from Ashlyn Shrader, Class of 2024.
