Lyrics assigned, standard v2.

Friday closes Week 4 with two threads: lyric assignments get finalized (every learner has at least one moment), and Standard of Excellence v2 gets a refinement pass based on three weeks of lived experience. First 360 + ICEE + Share Chair as usual.

Quest — Lip Dub assignment finalization + Standard of Excellence v2

(30 min) Lip Dub lyric assignment finalization:

  • Go section by section through the song.
  • Assign learners to each line/section. Everyone gets at least one moment.
  • Anyone wanting a non-singing role (camera, choreographer, props) confirms.
  • The full map gets written on the planning poster.

(30 min) Standard of Excellence v2 refinement: split into groups. Each group takes 1-2 posters. Refresh language based on what we've lived. New posters go up by end of block.

// conflict watch

Lyric assignment is where some learners get disappointed. Coach in advance: "Everyone gets a moment. The moment you get is yours. Make it good."
