Project Scenario:
|
|
The
sixth grade humanities
class has been asked to
design a unit of study
on ancient Greece.
After researching
various aspects of this
civilization, you will
present your findings to
the 5th grade students.
You will also
participate in the 5th
grade Ancient
Civilization's
Celebration to be held
in the Multi Purpose
Room later this
semester. |
Tools and Resources: 
|
|
We
will make use of the
many fine books in our
Media Center, plus books
checked out from your
local library.
Mrs. Herzog will be
helping us locate
wonderful print
materials, plus
recommending video
resources available from
the Media Center. |
Activities:
 |
|
1. After presenting the
scenario, we will
brainstorm information
we need to develop in
order to respond to the
directive. We will
review the grading
rubric and discuss its
implications. |
|
2. Students will also be
assigned a specific
famous Greek to
research. They will be
given a handout with
details and dates. |
|
3.
Students will meet with
their group to discuss
their roles,
responsibilities, and
topic framework. |
|
4. Participants will
decide on their method
of presentation.
Suggestions include
posters, models, Power
Points, videos, plays,
documentaries, web
pages, etc. Each
presentation must
include an evaluation to
be given to the rest of
the class (game,
crossword, matching
exercise, etc.). |
|
5. Students will read
print material, view
videos, and use the
websites provided to
gain information on
their selected topic. |
|
9. Each student group
will present their
contribution to the rest
of the students. |
