Will filled me in on his visit to Lynn University. He seemed to like the school and reviewed some notes he had jotted down about the facilities. He shared that he is keeping an open mind and seems excited about visiting the other colleges. Next, we reviewed the brainstorm activity that he completed at home. We looked for patterns and decided that everyone would agree that he works hard and has accomplished a great deal. We then reviewed the 7 common college application prompts. Will decided that he would like to write about learning film production and presenting his films at the Batt School. After reviewing some sample introductory paragraphs, he drafted his introduction. We talked about "showing not telling" and painting a picture for the the reader. For homework, Will is drafting the next paragraph which will be describing how he first became interested in film production, and how he went about learning how to put a film together.
