Materials you may need beforehand: butcher paper, markers, and things to make posters.
For Brainpop episode on graphic design: the username is burnetms, password is 8401
Tuesday: Discussion topic: why do we have advisory? Ask if students can articulate the purpose of advisory. Talk about shared values, common culture, and a positive campus. Talk about what prevents those things. Introduce the PBS advisory assignment Ms Ross already forwarded to the campus. Inspire them with a Brainpop episode about art and culture such as "Graphic Design, a Language of Visual Communication."
Wednesday and Thursday : work on posters. The topic for October is courage. Discuss ways that it takes courage to go against peer pressure and how it takes courage to be a leader and to refuse to be pressured into doing things you know are wrong, such as tagging, skipping.
Friday: trusted students can go put up posters in small groups; those that need supervsion could be led around campus to pick up trash.
In case you misplaced Jane's email about PBS posters:
Dear Burnet Sailors, The PBS team met this morning, and one of the topics that we discussed was signage for common areas. (We will email minutes of the meeting to everyone.) Last year, departments created and posted signs. This year, the team decided that advisories will create and post signs. The expectations for you to use when creating and posting signs is: S:\shared\staff\2008-2009 folders\Sailor Manual - Behavior Management Plan Cut and paste this link on the address line of your browser. Signs are most effective when students create them. :)
Which Advisories are responsible for creating/posting which signs? Arrival = 6.1 Dismissal = 6.2 Cafeteria = 7.1 Hallways = 8.1 Restrooms = ESL Assemblies = 7.2 SAIL = 8.2
Please create and post the signs by October 31st.
We thank you very much for being such a terrific group of teachers! With good thoughts, Jane
