April 12th

Today we went to the library and then we were introduced to our folktale project that we will be working on in class for the next week. Students got to select groups of three as well as a folktale to create their project around.  This project will be worth 50 summative points and the students will be given most of class each day (about 80 minutes) for the next week to complete the project. They will be required to create a collaborative PowerPoint presentation as well as a theme scrapbook page to present their folktale to the class. We will begin presenting these next Thursday, April 20th. This assignment will heavily impact the students’ grades for fifth marking so using classtime wisely with their group members will be essential for their success.

Reminder:  No School Friday, April 14th
