Periods 1 and 5 only - your homework is to write a brief reflection of the Top 5 Final Projects components that you enjoy creating. This can be in a simple format of bulleted points, or a narrative if you prefer. Period 3 has an additional piece of HW due for Mr. Krohn - read the bottom of this post for that additional requirement.
Your Final Project will be due Monday, November 28th and will focus on a student-selected Supreme Court Case. Try to select an obscure, or little-known case, yet one that has definite meaning in civil rights or civil liberties.
On Wednesday, Nov. 9 we will work at our tables as individual groups and then as a single group to create the components of the Final Project.
Your first reflection should be your preferred method of presentation. Choose the format you are the most comfortable with, or a new format you are going to challenge yourself with such as Prezi or a video media format you would like to explore - perhaps Animoto.
Reflections 2-5 should include the type of research and other components of a Final Project you prefer. No additional guidance here, you know what you prefer to do and what makes your presentations come alive in the classroom. Write your ideas down and be prepared to discuss on Wednesday.
Period 3 Additional Homework
due for Mr. Krohn
Whether you graduate and leave high school this year (2012) or not, you will most likely be 18 and an adult prior to the Holidays in 2012, one year from now.
What is your biggest fear as you consider preparations for recognizing cherished and loved ones during these traditional remembrances with gift giving?
How are you going to address this (these) FEAR (S)? What is your plan? What steps can you be taking today to alleviate those anxieties?
