As we prepare to read our first novel of the year, The Call of the Wild by Jack London, you will be presenting minilessons to the class to give them background knowledge about some of the topics that will be encountered in the novel.
Your group minilesson needs to meet the following requirements:
1. Powerpoint notes - Your notes should provide general information regarding your topic to the class. Do not copy and paste information. You should paraphrase and summarize your information. You can use bullet lists as well.
2. Include images based on your topic. You can include them on the slides with your information or separately.
3. You can include a short video in reference to your topics. Make sure that your video is less than five minutes long.
4. Create a five question quiz for the class. You can include it on the last slide of your presentation. Make sure to create multiple, true/false, and a short response question.
5. Include a slide for your references of where you found information.
**Your presentation should last a minimum of 10 minutes.
Projects are due Monday, November 28 (Periods 1,3,5) and Tuesday, November 29 (Periods 2,4,6)
They will be worth 10 points.
Enjoy this video "The Return to Innocence." It ties into the novel because Buck will have to return to his instincts.
