Friday, Dec. 2 Agenda

}Bell Ringer: To Kill a Mockingbird

◦General Introduction

◦Background Info Groups

–Read your article or information (CLOSE READ)

–Take notes on the most important info (what ties to details I gave in the intro, what can help you get a better understanding of the setting, plot, or characters of the novel)

}Research Time

◦Continue notes, look on your rubric (IDEAS section) if you aren’t sure what to take notes on

◦Ways to present: Web page, video, power point with links, prezi, Thinglink, HaikuDeck, Picktochart

◦As you think of ways to present your information, consider:

–Ways to include videos, audio, images

–How to keep class interested

–Do you want them to think or do anything after seeing your presentation

◦Link to other ideas (sources) or include the videos, pictures, etc in the presentation

◦Work time today, Monday, some on Tuesday and Wednesday, maybe some on Thursday, and the first presentations will be Friday (lottery for order Thursday)

}Meet on Background article (@3:30)

◦Start to figure out how your group will present this information to the class (all must talk)

}*Need ‘postits’ by Wednesday (the earlier the better): this is how you keep track of what you read/ know/ learn/ should remember (can be any strategy of close reading)
