Before we begin let's look at the Unit of Work.

Our unit question is:  How can I extend an introduction?

Remember there are 3 tasks in the Investigation. The first task is IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM.

The best way to begin your Investigation is by writing a paragraph that explains the problem as you understand it.
      A basic template to get you started: 
         Paragraph One
           - Lead-in sentence(s)
           - State the problem
           - Discuss Relevance (Say why we are doing this project)
           -State the solution
           -Include client/customer
         Paragraph Two
           -Connect your project to Health and Social Education

Remember;-)
According to the Assessment Rubric. . .
To get a 1/2: The student states the problem.
To get a 3/4: The student describes the problem, mentioning its relevance.
To get a 5/6: The student explains the problem, discussing its relevance.

Look at these words: states, describes, explains. How are they different?
Look at these words: mentioning, discussing. How are they different?
          
    
Learning objective: The student will: Differentiate action verbs, begin writing project intro (Identify the problem).
