Fri. Feb. 15

Bell Ringer:

What new ideas have you learned from the satire unit?

Agenda:
  • Students will present political cartoons to class. 
  • Students will continue working on the satire project. Teacher will go over expectations before they begin. 
Satire Project


How do I get a grade?


All groups will be graded, foremost, on the quality of the satire.  Presentation, quality of the final product and group work will also be assessed. 

Your group will be expected to give a 3-5 minute presentation of the satire to the class. 
Important note:
·        If you choose to do a video, you will need to check and test your materials ahead of time to make sure they work/you can present. 

Failure to be able to present due to your lack of planning as a group will result in a loss of points for the entire project.

This is a group project worth one formal assessment grade (100 points).  Eighty percent of the grade will be the same (based on your group’s presentation and written work).  The final 20% will be based on the effort you bring to the project, as determined by:

1.      Teacher observations
2.      Group member ratings
3.      A typed paragraph detailing specifically what you “did” for the project

Group work to turn in (should be neatly presented in a bound folder):
1.   Brainstorming/planning notes, research
2.  Drafts and the final copy of satire.  The final copy needs to be typed.

  • Satirical clips found in the real world.
