Genius Hour:
Essential Questions:
|
How can I demonstrate my understanding of my Genius Hour topic?
Can I support my claims with clear reasons and relevant evidence? |
Standard:
| CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.6.7 Integrate information presented in different media or formats (e.g., visually, quantitatively) as well as in words to develop a coherent understanding of a topic or issue. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.6.1.B Support claim(s) with clear reasons and relevant evidence, using credible sources and demonstrating an understanding of the topic or text.

I will know I’m successful when...
| I have many websites for my topic and they are bookmarked in my Genius Hour folder. I stay on task during the work time in class. I know what my inquiry question is and I am researching ways to answer that question. I am beginning to put together ideas for how I will present my information to the class in April. |
