Year 10, Let's begin again . . .

Task - Create a business card for a literary or historical figure.  Business cards are a relatively modern invention designed to introduce a person and provide at least a minimum amount of information about themselves or their business. This form of advertising is cheap and effective. 

Unit question:  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 Human Ingenuity


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?

Paragraph 1 is due at the end of class on September 18;-)

          
Learning objective: The student will: Differentiate action verbs, begin writing project intro (Identify the problem).
