Lesson Comments
Cameron is in Hawaii. I uploaded a 15 minute video to Teams for him, as requested.
Today's recorded lesson for Cameron focused on World War One: On Land, at Sea & In the Air. He learned about why WWI was the first modern, mechanized war in world history due to the introduction and use of weapons such as machine guns, tanks, poison gas, blimps, early model airplanes, and submarines. WWI was a total war and soldiers spent much of it stuck in trenches along the Western & Eastern Fronts. Today's lesson also reiterated why the U.S. mobilizes and sends troops to fight on the side of the Allies in 1917.
Feature Stories: What is it? What Distinguishes Features from Game Day Reporting, do not be "Masters of Obvious", Find a unique angle. Go in to event with eyes wide open. Empathy counts.
Video Recorded Lecture in TEAMS with not just talk but professionally executed examples of Feature Stories: a) "Once Upon A Dream" as well as "Folds of Honor". After playing each example of feature stories talk about writing words to match pictures & how much more difficult and time consuming it is to produce a feature story than voice over highlights of games for sportscasts.

Lesson Comments
Meghan is such a pro. She ushered into the Video Recording of Class for Cameron and even endured my half hour video lecture complete with examples of feature stories. Who knows if Cameron will do homework this time. No indication he will since he's never done in the past. So given that he has had weeks to put together the script for his feature story, I would be shocked if he does it overnight for class Friday. Time for class includes off day visit and technical issues.
