Today, as we transition from Storytelling With Data- you get a CATCH UP DAY.
Here’s how you should prioritize this gift of work time:

1. Frame your College Essay- See below for directions, see the example.  
2. Turn in Missing Assignments- See the list of assignments above that can still be turned in.
3. Revise Low Grades and Resubmit- You can revise your Data That Matters, your Storytelling With Data.
4. Work on Other Classes- Done with everything you can do for Humanities?  Catch up on missing work from other classes, honors reading, college class work, college applications, all the other things you have on your plate. 

The purpose of this is so you can enter thesis research without a ton of stress hanging over your head- use this time productively, and let’s start clawing our way out of disillusionment.

Steps to Frame Your College Essay

1. Find your essay and cover sheet (if you need a new copy printed, share with Grayson and he will reprint)
2. Gather materials- Frame, scissors, poster board, double-sided tape, college essay and cover sheet
3. Unwrap frame, make sure to remove film from clear plastic
4. Cut a piece of black poster board in half on the long edge.  MEASURE IT and draw a STRAIGHT LINE before cutting. If you struggle with scissor skills, ask someone else who can  cut in a straight line.
5. Use double-sided scotch tape to attach your essay and cover sheet to the poster board. 1 small piece of tape in each corner of the essay and cover sheet.
6. Put it in the frame, and re-attach the back
7. Stack neatly at front of room. ​
