Hey Guys,

I'm obviously not here today. Please do this assignment and don't give the teacher any problems...

SWBAT utilize what they have learned about Headlines, leads, and Imagery

Aim: How can we practice what we have learned this week to write a practice article about the demise of Giant’s Stadium?

Classwork:

Giants stadium is being torn down. Last Sunday’s Jets game was the last NFL game that will ever be played there
Please click on the link and look through the photos from the entire history of the stadium…

Pick 5 of the photos that YOU THINK are the MOST MEANINGFUL in understanding how important Giants Stadium has been to the history of sports and the NFL.

Your assignment is to write an article where you use an exciting HEADLINE, LEAD, and use IMAGERY to explain to your readers the importance of Giants Stadium. Use descriptions of the photos to explain to your readers why Giants Stadium will be missed.

Hello ESPN RISE VIP VOICE! Welcome back to school!

I hope that everybody had a great holiday and new year. ESPN RISE is releasing some awesome stuff in 2010. First off, ESPNRISE.COM is relaunching in February and has gotten a complete makeover and it is incredible...for real. I mean, there will be every single feature you will want from it! Some things will be similar to Facebook (like/dislike, profile pages), and work even better! Also, every single high school in the country will have it's own page, and every athlete can create their own page (with stats, bio, video, and more!) so you can easily interact with your friends, your own teammates, or even players from your sport in other areas! There will be tons of tips on recruiting, training, stories and rankings of course ....but that is just the tip of the iceberg! Lastly, we will be offering some RIDICULOUS contests!!! Stay tuned for that in the next few weeks!

VOICE TOPICS!
The ESPN RISE VOICE topics are now released for you! Please send back to ESPNRISEVOICE@gmail.com by Monday, January 12th !
