October 21 Classwork and Homework

Classwork

Today we reviewed the vocabulary work done in class with the substitute yesterday and worked in our presentation groups.  Once in our presentation groups, our goal was to accomplish the following:
  1. Share contact information with each other
  2. Decide what you are going to teach the class about your topic (select 3-5 sub-topics)
  3. Assign group roles (who is presenting what, who is taking lead for powerpoint/visual aid, who is keeping track of time, who is checking in with everyone, etc...)
  4. Decide what kind of visual aid you will use (if you are going to use a powerpoint, try using google docs or prezi which multiple users can edit online)
  5. Identify Areas of further research
  6. Begin working on presentation, further research, and visual aid

Homework

  1. Study Unit 4 Vocabulary for Friday's Test
  2. Work on your presentation
  3. If you did not turn in your INDIVIDUAL works cited page today, turn in late so you can get project credit for it.  It is not eligible for homework points anymore.
  4. If you did not turn in a source that you read AND annotated, turn in late so you can get project credit for it.  It is not eligible for homework points anymore.
