Dear Professor:

Hi! I am writing to introduce myself as one of your students in your Communication class. We haven’t met yet. I hope it’s okay for me to write. Is there anything you want me to do before I come in to class on the first day? I’m a little nervous. I’m home schooled and I don’t know what to expect.

Love,

Patti Lorde

Dear Patti:

Hello. How do you do. It is perfectly fine for you to write to me. There is nothing you need to do for the first day besides print out your syllabus and read through it. Also, buy your book and familiarize yourself with the way it’s set up. We’ll go over the syllabus thoroughly on the first day. Students are often nervous for the first day of class. It’s not unusual. Try to relax. I’ll see you soon.

Love,

Patti Lorde

P.S. Here’s my journal one questions and for some odd reason won’t submit mine on black board?

Dear Patti,

You must submit your journal to the assignment Dropbox, not email, on BB.

Did you go to the Dropbox?

Also, your poster board should be the biggest size available.

For the post board do you want the paper or cardboard post board?

Happy snow day! We’ll have lots to do next Wednesday. Quiz on Improving Voice is first. So don’t be late! Anyone late will not be able to take the quiz unless I approve your reason. Here are the rest of your assignments. Read carefully.

Quiz Improving Voice

Due February 14: Prepare two contrasting poems for presentation to the class. Poems should be by an established poet or they can be yours. Choose only 8-12 lines. No more. Bring your prepared poems to class. Prepared means you know your material well enough that you are able to glance down at your poems only rarely. Use what you’ve learned about the voice to vocally interpret the poem with your voice to help the audience understand the meaning of the poems. Do not try to wing it. I will know. Read your contrasting poems to the class and through my critique, learn how to bring color and mood into your voice when speaking. You may be asked to redo it several times.

DUE Feb. 14: Read Chapters 4, 5 and 6 Verbal, Nonverbal and Listening, pp.64-117

Any questions, email me.

Yes, this is for Monday. You have to choose two poems by famous poets. Those two poems should contrast by subject matter or mood or tone. You will read them with vocal expression before the class. These directions are also in your syllabus.

Patti,

You are driving me nuts! Do you have to write me every day? Can’t you take personal responsibility for anything. No, I can’t write that. But that’s what I’m thinking. Don’t you ever listen to what I say in class or read what I write on the board. Do I have to hold your hand every step of the way? You’re not in kindergarten. This is college. Is this what homeschooling teaches you? Why don’t you ask another responsible student in the class for the answers to these questions? Even though you’re polite and nice, it doesn’t take away from the fact that you’re demanding an extreme amount of my time and attention. It is time I could be spreading to the other students in the class. Oh, never mind. If I ever wrote a letter like this, I’d lose my job. 

Dear Patti,

We are dressing up for the presentation of the informative speeches.

Professor Jules
