These opportunities for extra credit are valid the entire school year; from Labor Day to Memorial Day. Each one, unless otherwise noted, is worth the same value as a single homework assignment. If you are unsure, always ask me before going if it will count for extra credit.
Plays. Community theatre, college productions, professional plays and the productions of Walnut High School are all valid. Attend, get your ticket stamped or signed by a teacher there, and attach that ticket to your half-page or better review of the play. It is a review. What did you like, and why. What did you not like, and why. Should others attend the play?
Museums. Los Angeles has a wealth of museums covering all sorts of subjects. Modern art, dinosaurs, cowboys, even TV. Attend the museum, and again, attach a ticket stub or receipt or other proof of attendance with your report. The report also must be at least a half page and must tell me what you did and saw. It must also tell me at least one thing you learned that is new to you.
Zoos and aquariums. I treat these the same as museums. I am currently inclined to accept these for extra credit, but that may change, especially if there is a run of people going to Sea World in an attempt at extra credit.
And finally, the Renaissance Faire. This event occurs in the spring and I will talk about it more at that point.
Go out, get culture and extra credit at the same time!
