wrap up

Hey everyone!

I hope that you are enjoying your break! Don’t forget in all your sugar induced comatose time that there are a few things you should be doing for when practices start back up in January.

First: Make copies of your script so that you have something that you can mark on and something that I can look at when we’re working together

Second: Memorize! It is important! The sooner you are memorized the sooner we can begin to work on vocal technique and blocking…otherwise I just waste practice time telling you you need to memorize

Third: There is no Henry Ford tournament this year which means as of right now, there is no January tournament. This means that all of you have to be that much more prepared come February so that you can hit the ground running!

Fourth: Broadcasters; Your copies are posted under pages, download them and practice cutting with in a 25 minute time frame rather than 30. If you can train yourself to prep in this time frame then during competition you will have 5 extra minutes to play with for introduction-catchers, getting to your room or timing yourself. Also, don’t forget to keep up on the news.

Fifth: I MUST HAVE YOUR ACTIVITIES FEES! I AM NOT KIDDING!!! I need to turn these in when school gets back. I will start hunting you down…….

Alright, thats about it….for now (evil laugh)

As soon as I know I will get a practice schedule up for the spring.

Enjoy sleeping in!

Ms. C

Thanks to everyone for showing up to the meeting yesterday, it was really great to see all your faces again ;-)

Here are some of the important things to remember from the meeting:

~By next week, you need to have a script. Copies of the script need to be made-1 for you to look at and 1 for me to look at. Those of you who already have scripts, you need to cut those scripts down so that they are within a 5-8 minute time frame.

~Practices are on Weds and Fri after school. You must attend one of these practices.

~We are still accepting designs for our T-shirts this year.

~What are we going to do about Fundraising for Mackinaw? We will need to come to a conclusion by next week Wednesday.

~I still need paperwork and $5 activity fee from some of you, please be timely about that.

This should be a really great season. See you next week!
