=Put a Short Activity/Lesson/Project Title Here=


 * **Title**: ||< Ma Routine Quotidienne - After the 1st discussion ||
 * **Subject**: ||< French 2 ||
 * **Grade**: ||< 9 - 12 (various levels in each class) ||
 * **Time Frame**: ||< This activity will take a couple of days after the initial discussion on 10/16 ||
 * **Summary:** ||< Consolidation of our in-class brainstorming on ideas about how to demonstrate mastery of daily routine vocabulary / reflexive verbs, live vs. on line, what to include, what Mme Sorsby will be looking for in her evaluation.

Since our last meeting, we have had our discussions, I consolidated the information on options and evaluations & distributed it, more discussions, students decided what they wanted to do to demonstrate master, worked on their projects and presented today. || Please identify opportunities for differentiation. ||
 * **Tasks**: ||< I will consolidate the results of our brainstorming sessions and compile a list of presentation options, what to include in the presentation, what teacher will be looking for in evaluation - get that idea list back to students - students formulate idea of what their initial plans are and comment back on Edmodo. ||
 * Objectives: ||< * What TEKS or other objectives does this activity/lesson project meet? ||
 * Assessment: ||< Assessment will be tough - in ways. The projects will all be so different. The assessment rubric I came up with is very broad and allows for variation from one type of project to another. To be honest - perhaps a little too broad for my liking.
 * Resources: ||< * What resources will be needed? ||
 * **Teacher**
 * Reflections:** || I think this is a good second step to help students visualize what we discussed in class on day 1 (Oct. 16) and then require that they make an early step of thinking about their presentation and semi-committing to it (by posting on Edmodo)

The whole preliminary process went pretty smoothly. Many students were excited by the freedom of choice they had with their projects - what to do, with whom to work, etc. Others stated that they would prefer more definition. Students were not given a huge amount of class time to work on their projects - but I was somewhat disappointed in how they applied themselves during that time.

Students presented projects today. Overall, I was disappointed. I feel the quality of work was not that great. There were a few good projects - very few that really took advantage of the possibility of open-ended creativity. Lots of mediocre work, sloppy, not ready to go on due date (I'll be giving lots of late grades). Maybe this is part of the learning curve. ||
