New Bern is getting a new Mayor....well at least for the sake of our project anyways. Today, students were placed into groups of 3 or 4 and were given the task of being campaign managers for different candidates running for Mayor of New Bern. They are tasked with creating a 30 second commercial endorsing their candidate and explaining why the Clean Water Act should or should not be enforced. Students will have the rest of the week to work on this in class. Students will present their commercials to the class on Monday and continue on Tuesday after the benchmark test if necessary.
Click HERE for the full details of the project including how it will be graded. I also passed out a study guide for the benchmark test today. This will also be due on Monday. You can find a copy of the study guide HERE. Looking ahead: Vocab words due and quiz on Monday (4/27) Commercial due Monday (4/27) Study guide due Monday (4/27) Benchmark test for Earth Systems will be on Tuesday (4/28), make sure you are studying.
