INCOMPLETE HOMEWORK!

Year 12s, I am not very happy this morning to see that only ONE student has completed and uploaded her production diary.

This is not acceptable and your will be getting a penalty point for not completing this activity.

This needs to be completed by the time I see you on Tuesday please.

Thank you,

Miss Beckles

Please see below the structure for your Production Diary.

This must be completed once a week and I will be checking EVERY Friday. If this is not completed then you will have a detention with me FRIDAY AFTER SCHOOL! Ms Beckles

You need to create a production diary and update it weekly.

Structure: Keeping a structure to your blog entries will help you make sure you cover everything you need to in each post.

 What work you have completed this week?

 Are you on target with your timescales?

 How did the work go?

 Were you able to complete all you wanted to? If not, why not?

 Did you get ahead of time? If so, how did you achieve this? How will you use the extra time?

 What have you learnt? Will this change your project?
