Essay Information:
Homework:
Today in class students worked on a group SAQ. If you were absent, please schedule a time to come in to take it. Once students were done with the SAQ they took notes on the lecture posted below.
This essay is due on January 10th.
Today in class, students completed the stations activity from yesterday. We finished class with a lecture. Homework Due Monday: Chapter 14 Section 1- See worksheet below
THE FORMAT OF THE SHORT ANSWER SECTION:
• Each SAQ will be divided into 2-3 tasks labeled a, b, (c - if applicable). • Each of these lettered items will be graded separately, so approach each lettered task individually as a separate, but related task (skip a line in between each task). • Before completing any tasks, look at all of the tasks so that you have a feel for the big picture. ANSWER USING THIS THREE SENTENCE FORMAT: A Clearly ANSWER the question. C CITE a specific piece of evidence to support your answer. The more specific, the better. E EXPAND your answer by providing further analysis or historical context. MORE WORDS OF ADVICE: • The questions don’t have to be completed in order. Start in your comfort zone with the question you find easiest to answer and save the most difficult question(s) for last. • Answer the question DIRECTLY. Don’t beat around the bush or try to dress up your answers. • If the question asks for ONE piece of evidence, there are no extra points for giving more than that. • Each task is graded separately. If you can do A but not B or A and B but not C, then GO FOR IT! In order to pass, you only have to earn half of the points in this section. DON’T PANIC! • It’s okay not to know everything. If you’re given three choices and you have to choose two, it’s okay if you have no idea about one of them (since there are no right or wrong answers). Today in class, students worked on stations throughout the classroom. Each class completed 4-5 stations and will finish the rest tomorrow in class.
We watched Mankind the Story of Us- Survivors. Attached below is the worksheet and the video.
Today in class we did a binder check on Unit 3 and reviewed the test. We also went over the calendar for the month of December.
