Ancient History:
Students have grouped themselves together to work on presentations about
Mesopotamia. The students were given a day to research. They were shown the
rubric that they are graded on and they met with the teacher to go over their
presentation. The rubric is posted. The students are reminded about their quiz
today and that their presentations will begin on Monday September 30th,
2013. Students are reminded that
absentees of their group will mean that the presentations still happens but the
group member who is absent will have to write a report to show their
understanding to make up for the mark.
