Out+of+the+Dust

The //Out of the Dust// test will be Friday, 3/11/11--make sure you finish reading and take good notes! **The test will be open notes, but NOT open books.**  Test material will include major characters, setting, and plot, as well as literary techniques.  The template for "I Am" poems can be found in the class notes from 3/4/11.

WebQuest Grading Rubric:

This is the link for the **webquest** we are **doing in class** the weeks of 3/7 and 3/14: @http://www.zunal.com/webquest.php?w=78302
 * Choose a topic and write three (not ten) **good research questions** (preferably level 3, but at least level 2--level 1 or "right there" questions don't give you enough to research).
 * Research to find answers to your questions, then decide what **specific information you want to include** in a presentation to your colleagues.
 * Complete your **Works Cited** for this project. (See the "Research Resources" page for help with that.)
 * Then, when you've found information and decided what to share, put together a **short--3 minutes max--presentation** for your colleagues. Below are the three media choices you have for this project; more detailed instructions for each will be posted at the bottom this page by the end of the week:
 * A Google Presentation https://docs.google.com/a/jeffcoschools.us/.
 * A Prezi @http://prezi.com/
 * A Voicethread @https://voicethread.com/
 * On Tuesday, 3/15, you will present your research findings to the class.
