Media Placemat

Hi all,

Just a reminder that your Media placemat is due this Friday along with it's presentation.

If you would like time in class to work on your assignment, please make sure to bring in materials (i.e. magazines, print sources, etc.) that you can use to cut and paste.  Otherwise, we will continue with the key concepts and you will have to work on your placemat from home.

Thank you,
Ms. Gulian
