Hi loves,
I am SO sorry I am out again today...I am feeling NO better, and am actually feeling much worse. I know it is awful timing...feel free to email me if you need anything!
Nicole has the schedule for exhibition, and will probably give you a copy today...Tomorrow, in class, we will do a run through of the night...just be prepared for that. In a little bit, I will post what you can do to prepare for exhibition - just a few reminders. So, make sure to check out the blog later today for that...
So, for today, in class...
I want you to read the article below...If there are enough computers for each of you, go ahead and read on your own. If you need to share computers, you can popcorn through the article, and then write your response in your journal.

After you read the article, please reflect - do you find significance in ethics lessons? Is the classroom the appropriate venue? Should it be a requirement for graduation? If a public school, can the state mandate such a requirement? What is ethics (is it a personal belief system or a universal truth)? How can it be taught, at all? Etc.
Please put some genuine thought into this...
Then, after everyone is finished writing quietly, you will be watching "My Architect." This film shares the story of one of the most influential architects in our history (super impressive). However, he led a questionable personal life. After you finish watching this movie, please reflect on Louis Kahn's story in light of today's journal write. I want 500 words of pure excellence posted on your blog by the end of the day...remember to watch for any grammatical/spelling errors - you are writing for the entire world to see!!! Don't forget to cite your sources, as well.
Thank you all for being so wonderful (thank you to all who are covering my classes, too!). I hope to get better quickly and see you tomorrow...Miss you!!
All my love,
Elika
