I hope you all are enjoying your week of learning away from the world of core class...
REMINDER THAT THE FOLLOWING ARE DUE IN MY CLASSROOM TOMORROW (none of this should be a surprise... almost all of this should have been completed already... it has been assigned for a week or more!!!)
Thursday
1. TERM 1 ENDS!!!!!!
2. Turn in Term 1 Service Reflection!!!!
3. Turn in E-Core (Jean's Farm + Fish Hatchery)
4. Turn in Geography worksheet #4 (Portland/Oregon)
***Reminder that you will have to drop off those things in my classroom Thursday before/during/after school as we will not be meeting as a core class that day.
Service Reflections Rubric:
-There should be a minimum of three paragraphs
-I am looking for a strong hook and conclusion... CONNECTIONS of your work to the outside communities and world...Correct grammar and punctuations, and of course a creative piece (please don't do the same creative piece over and over again on each reflection... spice it up)
-I would recommend doing your work on the computer as I often send back reflections for editing after I first receive them. Doing your work on the computer enables you to go back and make corrections without having to feel like you are starting all over again.
What?
•What did you do?
•Who was involved?
•Where were you?
•What part did you play?
•When did it happen?
Michael's comments: The "what" is a quick, brief paragraph. Recognize that you must go far beyond the “what” to have a complete reflection as paragraph takes little thought and effort to complete. Pay attention to the “so what” and give the MOST attention and thought to the “now what”
SO WHAT?
•Why did you do it?
•Why was it important to do?
•How was it helpful?
•Who benefits from the Project?
NOW WHAT?
•What are you going to do with what you learned?
•What will you keep doing (or not doing) now?
•How is this action connected to a larger issue? What larger issue?
•Who is doing something about this issue?
•What organizations exist to address this issue?
Always Consider…
you --> School --> COMMUNITY --> WORLD
Michael's notes: A paragraph should be spent showing how your work connects outside of your three hours of service to the greater community and world.
Michael's final note:
When looking at reflections I will always look for a hook, 3 paragraphs (with the NOW WHAT paragraph reflecting the most effort), and CONNECTIONS (showing how your work relates to bigger picture ideas).
These are worth 25 points and show reflect a high level of effort and thought
