MAY

Mini-Dissertation 
FINAL PROJECT - remember we moved the deadline until later to give you time to work on this (and created awesome projects) - May 30th. (right after Memorial Day)
This is a BIG ONE - worth 250 points (50 points have already been graded on checkpoints - the final project is worth a whopping 200!)

The RUBRIC for the ENTIRE ASSIGNMENT can be located here.


The RUBRIC for the PROJECT can be located here, if you need another one.
YES, you must have one attached to your final project.

MAY will be the month you will be presenting your CLASS (and facing the Dissertation Board with questions on your topic...good thing, by then you will all be experts!!!)


You will ALL need to be ready to join the BOARD (randomly selected each day). To help you prepare for serving on the BOARD, use the QUESTION SHEET to prepare. Everyone will hand in questions each day for a grade - but it will help you serve on the BOARD also if you are appointed to do so.


THINK DEEP QUESTIONS - questions that will force the speaker to think!

FINAL TEST. 

You will be required to know ALL the dates on the SNAPSHOT list - the one provided at the beginning of the year and the one you have been tested over all year long. Make sure you dust off the preambles to both the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence too.

That test is scheduled for Tuesday, May 30!

UPDATE:
Some of you asked for another link to the dates list. It's in an earlier month, but, in case you can't find it and need another SNAPSHOT date list, click here.

And the test has been moved to Thursday, June 1!
