Message to Mentors

Hi All:

 

We're getting to a very exciting time in the Senior Project experience, and your mentee is going to need you for inspiration and guidance more than ever. Attached, you will find a grid indicating student presentation times. This is a very big deal because none of them have controlled a classroom filled with adults and students for the better part of an hour.

 

At this point, I've told the students that they need to plan and create a session that will fill 45 minutes as they share what they have created, how they have grown, and what they have learned over the last few months. They need to go into the Disney trip with much off the planning under their belts.

 

Here are some tips:

• When you see them this week, ask to see their presentation brochures.
• Help them chart out how they will fill the time and exactly what product/information they will present. Remember how it was during our first year in front of a class?
• Encourage them to see their SPONSORS to consult about content and generate ideas.
• Please take time to look at their recent blog entries and make thoughtful comments.

 

Ask Mr. Snyder and me ANY questions.

Thanks for what you do for our students!

 

Larry
