What about this presentation? 

1. Dude 8? 

• what I originally said was this week - remember? 

1. What? I have to do a presentation? 

• no, I said you could, or you could use Presentation software - ie Prezi, Google Presentations, etc
• it is an option

1. Do we have to ask questions and exchange them? 

• that would be a good idea - you don’t have to
• answer your own
• choose to present that same info in some other form - you could find another way to “answer” the question - 

1. Level 4s are about EXTENDING the information

• finding relevance, showing the importance of, explaining in detail the symbolic element of, showing the link to the real world, making universal observations about human nature
• some English teachers ONLY want the above (hint: me) I still want you to answer simple questions, but the marks come from the extension

1. Mr. Lobb is all about YOU making the decisions

• if you have a way of doing this assignment, and showing me the understanding of the story in the areas from the note, I am ready to accept your way
• you have the driver’s seat - you decide HOW you show your knowledge

Your point

Your reasoning

Your references to the story

Your elaboration

Your extension

(PS this is literally a rubric)

6. I ONLY mark you as YOU - group is rough work
