Questioning

Presentation Rubric Journals

Use questioning including the tapping prior knowledge questions to gauge student needs before project work begins, and provide instruction as necessary. Students use a presentation checklist and newsletter checklist to help guide their learning, stay on track, and self-assess their progress. Quality of journal entries and research help both teacher and students to monitor progress and understanding of content. Questioning is used throughout the unit to help students develop their higher-order thinking skills and process content. Individual conferences are used to help monitor progress and answer any questions. Ask students to use the presentation rubric and peer feedback form to help them self- and peer-assess work prior to completion. Use the same presentation rubric to assess and grade the final project.
