Friday- We began an activity called Who's House where students were asked to decide which of three siblings should inherit the family home if the parents die unexpectedly. The analogy was then linked to the land of Israel/Palestine in the Middle East. Students were split into groups and asked to become experts on one of three sides in that area; British, Palestinian, or Israeli. Each expert was then assigned to educate others on their position and learn from two other different experts the remaining sides.
Tuesday- Today we will see a promethean presentation on the history of the Palestinian Crisis and discuss our assessment project Middle East Think-Tac Toe. The assignment can be viewed under the assignments link on the left hand side of the blog. If you would like to see the Promethean Presentation at home, Click on the link below.

ReplyDeletethis was maybe a day you were absent?? When we did Whose House everyone became experts on a side of the Palesinian/Israeli Crisis. Those groups. When you are absent you REALLY need to get the missing handouts and notes from a neighbor!
