Contributor’s Name: Chris Foster
This is my second cycle of study. The theme is potential. I teach all core subjects. Many of the items center around the project submitted here. The project is a science project that is an interactive solar system exhibit. The outside opportunity is a trip to the local science center to research for the project. The self-assessment is also related to the project and our culminating activity was the presentation of the project. There are also several lessons here. They are causes of the revolutionary war, scientific method, multiplying fractions (use of fraction circles 9-12 material), and the seven gateways. The group initiative is back-to-back. There is also a cause and effect shelfwork. The seminar is the song, “You’ll Be Back,” (from the musical “Hamilton”). There is also a cover sheet, kick-off activity, calendar, checklist, and list of standards.
