Today is a fun and exciting day in class. We are using our creative skills by inventing a new product. The whole point to this mini project, is to think of something new and support it with details and facts. Once the students have decided on their invention, they have to fill out a chart and then write a persuasive essay to make me want to buy it what they are selling. It allows them to be in-charge of what their main idea and supporting details are versus a reading passage and answering questions. The students are able to use their 21st Century Skills by critically thinking, collaborating, and using their creative minds. I really hope they enjoy it. Plus they get to use the Chrome Books so that is always a plus in their eyes. Here is the project description and rubric:
Here is mine and another teacher's example:
We also worked on the prefix "re" today as bell-work. Here is the graphic organizer for that again:
Hope you all have a lovely day.
Love,
Miss Cannon
