Flowers are a common thing at the market

• Monday, May 6th: Visit to Union Square Greenmarket: We will be meeting at our classroom and walking down to Union Square together. You will be receiving an assignment to guide your visit, but will be free to walk around the market on your own.
• Wednesday, May 8th: Review Market Visit and Discuss Creative Re-Mix: Please bring your completed Greenmarket Visit sheets with you to class and post a picture from the market to the blog before class. Be prepared to present a “progress report” on your Creative Re-Mix project in class.
• Creative Re-Mix: Proposals were due by May 3rd. Please see me or get in touch ASAP if you have not yet had a proposal approved. Presentations of the the Creative Re-Mix will take place on 5/13 and 5/15.

Create a video that starts of as very sad and traumatic events specifically on hurricanes then create a change of mood with happy music and videos describing the Mexican food culture.

I hope everyone had a peaceful and restorative Spring Break and that you are returning to school energized and focused, ready to complete the semester on a high note.

• Analytical Research Papers – Most of you have already received comments back from me on your research papers. Please read the comments carefully, and see me if you have any questions or want to go over any part of the paper. If I have NOT received your paper yet, please keep in mind that it is your responsibility to get in touch with me to discuss your situation, so reach out!
• Field Trip – On Monday, May 6th, we will be visiting the Union Square Greenmarket. We will meet in our regular classroom and walk there together. We will not be returning to the classroom that day, so plan accordingly.
• Creative Re-Mix – On Monday, May 13th and Wednesday, May 15th, you will be presenting your Creative Re-Mix to the class. Hopefully, you settled on an idea before Spring Break and have either made some progress or have given some thought to your plan. In a comment on this blog post, please share your plan for the Creative Re-Mix. If you are still struggling to settle on a plan, provide two possibilities of projects you might pursue. The sooner you post your idea, the sooner you will get feedback. Please share your Creative Remix idea no later that this Friday, May 3rd.
