Next spreads...
You have just completed (or are about to complete) the school photo spread for the class/grade you chose and you are going to complete the 'candid' photo page for that class for the Publication Design Semester Exam.
Choose another spread to prepare for submission for formative assessment on December 18th. This spread could be school photo spread for a second class/grade, a spread that has no time constraints such as Mrs. Abassi's message, or it can be a spread for an event that has already taken place. It is your choice.
You will be working on your chosen spread for class time and homework up until December 18th. Remember that you need to take time to work on it in the HS Lab for homework, if you do not have access to InDesign at home.
Mr. Arthur and myself are available to help you with technical and design questions. Make sure that your spread reflects our Instagram theme.

Preparation for Publication Design Semester Exam
For your Semester Exam, you will be completing the second spread for the class/grade for which you have just done the school photo spread. The second spread is the candid, "a day in the life" spread. You can look at last year's Yearbook to see examples.
In preparation for the exam you can contact the teacher/students (depending on grade level) for candid photos and a write up for the spread. You can have all of this ready for the exam session because you will need it to complete the spread. You can also bring sketches of your ideas for the spread.
During the exam period you will spend the time working with InDesign and PhotoShop, as appropriate to complete and submit the spread.
The spread will be graded using the Yearbook Spread Rubric that we have been using in class.
