2. PE - Photography Hybrid!!

• This may take some running around, so we can call it PE.

Remember depth of field? With enough light, you can get things that are near and far both in focus. This is an important trick!!! Macey, Tucker, and Georgia: Please ask your professional-photographer-parent to explain this better than I can. Angle is also important (maybe get really low!)

My example of playing with perspective / depth of field

Here’s a media example from a few years ago:

3. Word of the Day: 

Chiffonade

When you make food, cutting things to the right size affects

• How it looks

• Taste

• How it cooks (safety!)

• How it cools (safety!)

Good recipes use real cutting terms. Look at the article and fill in the chart.

Cutting Term	Size and shape
Chiffonade	Herbs in thin strips, ⅛ inch wide
Jullienne
Mince
Chop
Cube

A Falling Knife Has No Handle. Explain! (yes, go ahead and google it)

5. Harry Potter And The Plot Busters!

This is a biggie. Here’s my thought:

• Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone was written 1990-1995.

• This is an early 1990s cell phone:

• They sucked so much even the wizards used letters, owls, and chimneys instead.

• But what if??? If real modern cell phones, text, instagram, existed in the Potterverse, how would it change things? 

• Would there still be a story? Would it be ruined?

How would cellphones/ other modern technology change the potterverse?

Advanced ideas: Hermione’s Instagram feed, what would wizard Minecraft be like, create a post from Snape’s/McGonagle’s class blog, hexing people through Discord???? Technology in Potterverse - get creative!
