We put together the yearbook as well as the school newspaper. We constanly work on improving our journalism and editing skills. We write and send a bulletin to each teacher every morning. We learn about video and still cameras. We video tape and photograph performance days, guest speakers, and special events.
Students continue working on improving their keyboarding skills throughout the year.
Each marking period students give a speech to the class. Students enjoy working on original video projects that they create, edit, and produce. Sometimes they are shared at performance day. The most important thing we learn in Communication Arts is how to express ourselves in a creative way through our writing, and how to write for different purposes and audiences. Writing is the primary emphasis of this class because all of the projects we do depend on good writing .
