Spring Electives
We have two new electives this spring! Below are the course descriptions. Click here to view the schedule. You may add these courses on your spring registration form that you will receive tonight at the Parent-Teacher Fellowship.
Creative Communications: 6th hour
Grades: 7-12 (will generate high school credit for grades 9-12)
In Creative Communications, students will express themselves in various ways. This will involve creating: commercials; imaginative presentations; writing comic strips, poetry, or short stories; mini speeches: casual, persuasive, and informative; as well as an added component of artistic projects utilizing the organization of information through technology.
Intro to Debate: 4th hour
Grades: 7-8
Should people be able to obscure their identities online? Should what you say on social media: Twitter, Facebook, Instagram be grounds for getting expelled from school? Do we still need libraries? If the lyrics of a song are immoral but the instrumentation/music is outstanding, should we listen? These are questions we all face. Where do you land? Why? Why not? We will explore what holding a position means and practice the skill of providing intellectually honest premises/reasons for or against the position in Intro to Debate.
