DIMM classes for May

We are doing our final DIMM project.  All teams must have a script and a story board in by May 5th so that you can get out and do your video tapes so that you leave yourself time to edit them in Premiere.

The script and the story board are both graded so do not wait to get them in.

Week of May 2

We are finishing up the Backdraft movie, if you do not have the permission slip turned in yet, you must turn in a paragraph on what you know about fire fighters jobs.  You will have until the next movie to get it in before it gets too low on points to count.

We are moving on to Fire extinguisher equipment and discussions on Private Security.

Please remember the number one thing we learned about CPR, to get the person out of danger
first before you try to help them.

We have only four weeks left of school so we will be working on the Final Exam really soon.

TAKS Testing week of April 26-29th

All students are testing for TAKS this week and will be using our rooms.  Please check the list on the doors to the 300 and 100 buildings for where we are moved to.

Good Luck.
