1) Warm Up: Are we doing well enough? (7 min)

1. Look at the infographic (from 2013) to the right.

4. Share this with the class.

2) Lesson Plan/Literacy Block: Success After AVID Skit Presentations (20 min)

1. Before the skits: Set up a note sheet. EQ: What will I do to be successful after finishing AVID?
2. During the skits:
1. Perform your skit.
2. While watching, take as many notes as possible. Try color coding successful and unsuccessful choices or strategies. You could also use a T-chart.
3. Skit Topics:
1. Budget Team: This semester you have two online courses. You are absent from classes at LEC for three days in a row - the first two are snow days and you get a cold so you miss a third. What do you do (or do not do) about your online classes to ensure you get a C or higher?
2. Architect Team: You have decided you want to go to a private four year university. You cannot figure out how your classes will transfer to that school. What do you do?
3. Design Team: You are struggling in one of your college classes at CCCC. Your professor's office hours are during one of your other classes. What do you do?
4. Tech Innovation Team: You just got your schedule for your shifts at Lowe's Foods and you have three birthday parties coming up. You also have a paper for Ms. Regan and a test in Biology. How do you balance it all?
5. Marketing Team: You did not turn in a major assignment for a college class at CCCC and have a zero on that assignment. You now have a D and only 4 grades left for the semester. What do you do?
4. Expectations:
1. Every group member talks at least twice.
2. We can tell if your group is demonstrating successful or unsuccessful choices.
3. You use accurate details about college policies and resources.
4. Each member uses an audible voice.
3. After the skit:



LEC Graduation from before I started teaching here :)

1. Compare your notes to a neighbors. Add on.
2. Do a one minute quickwrite: What will you do to be as successful as possible at LEC/CCCC?
3. Skim through the sample emails here.
4. Discuss: What makes an email professional? Unprofessional? What features do professional emails have?
5. Finally, work with your group to send me a formal email asking me a question related to your skit.
