Project Name

Introduction

What is the goal of your project?  What learning targets are you focusing on?

• This is the project goal
• The skills that we want to build on are writing, collaborating and presenting.

 "Hook"

Bridging personal experience with project

• Think of a 'quick write' or 'think, pair, share' that the students can engage in to bridge their personal experiences with the project goal.  For example if your project is to create a PSA on bullying, have them write about a time they either consoled someone who was bullied or how someone consoled them when they were bullied.  

'Brainstorming Ideas'

Building prior knowledge and experience

• What will this activity look like for the students? Will they divide into groups or pairs or brainstorm in writing individually?
•  
•  

'Read/Watch and Clarify'

Metacognitive Development

• What web resources (articles and/or videos, podcasts, vodcasts, etc.) will you use for building knowledge?
• How will you organize your focus of reading? (Groups of two, individual?)
•  

Project Product-

text re-presentation

ex.  collaborative poster, video, podcast, etc.

• The idea for a project is to take the writings of understanding from each reading and manifest it into an original work. 
• Describe the post production of the work.
•  

• How will the students present and promote their projects?
• Who will they present it to?  How will you promote the event?
