Presentations Next Week

Hi everyone,

It sounds like between absences and a TOC who didn’t see the instructions, most of you have not completed my signup form for the presentation scheduling. (You can still complete it! Link is in the post below!)

For those of you who read the instructions, completed the form, and selected Tuesday or Thursday, you get the time you picked. For everyone else, I’m expecting you to be ready to go this week (yes, that means Tuesday). If you are A-L and have a grad transitions interview on Tuesday and you are in Period 2, you can go on Thursday. Otherwise you need to be ready to present. We don’t have time for this to get pushed off forever – end of term is coming up and many of you will have tests and other big assignments coming up.

If there are extenuating circumstances – you need to email me and let me know! I’ll be on and off email this weekend. 

On a more positive note the questions and ideas you are exploring are very interesting. Remember for the synthesis:

  • COMPARE your articles – what ideas/arguments did they have in common?
  • CONTRAST your articles – what were the significant or relevant differences?
  • EVALUATE – If the ideas in the articles were different, which did you find more convincing and why?
  • CONNECT – Explain how the learning you gained from the inquiry process have deepened your understanding of the novel.
