Today's check-in: peer feedback & reflection

Focus on Your Unit 2 Goals:
In today's class you will take a look at the Unit 2 goals you set for yourself. What did you want to focus on improving for both research and for historical explanations?   As you begin to prepare for the unit summatives, be sure you have these goals in mind.


Formative Feedback:

Be sure to look over the formative research and the formative explanation rubric and feedback so you also understand what your strengths and areas to focus on for improvement are.

As a reminder, these scores are in Powerschool but do not impact your final semester grade. They are simply used to guide your work and give feedback on your attempt to meet or exceed the standards.

The weight of these scores has already been removed so they have no affect on your current grade in this class. 

Class time today:
​work on research + One-on-one check-ins

You will spend the bulk of today's class time on your summative research portfolio.   If you would like to meet one-on-one with Mrs. Stewart to discuss your outline for your summative historical explanation, you will have the opportunity to do so. 

You will also have all of the Exam Review block (Thursday/Friday) to meet with her if you are not ready today or do not feel the need to meet over the outline but want to check in once you start actual work on the explanation.
