As is true with any other class/teacher, go to HAIKU (my website is linked there) OR you can go directly to my website (kristaprice.com) and click on Stagecraft from the Educator drop-down menu.
-
I will post the week's self-directed learning on my website each Friday for the FOLLOWING week. (This gives you a full week to complete the assigned learning/tasks.)
-
You must "come to class" via Zoom during your assigned class period. (My Zoom info is on Haiku)
-
Day 1 of the week will be a very quick check-in.
-
Day 2 of the week will be a full class in which you share assigned projects and learning with the class.

Note: You MUST have all of your learning experiences for the week COMPLETE by Friday's Zoom class.
