Task:
Big 6 step one: "Task
Definition:"
You have been divided
into 6 groups, representing six of the ten Florida Native American
groups: Calusa, Choctaw, Creek, Miccosukee, Seminole, and Timucuan.
Working together in your groups, you will go to the "Process" page from
the link to the left, and follow the directions for finding information
on your assigned tribe. You will be getting information from Web sites
through links from this webquest, from non-fiction books in the library,
and the encyclopedia. You will write notes of the information you have
learned, and then organize your notes to create your class newspaper.
Group roles:
- All group
members will follow the process page and fill out the graphic
organizers of information on their assigned tribe.
- Some members will
be the journalists and write an article on their tribe.
- Some group members
will be in advertising and write ads for the food, tools, shelter,
or clothing of their tribe. Remember your persuasive writing
strategies!
- Some members will
be the artists and create comics relating to information learned on
their tribe and help design the layout of the newspaper.
- Some members will
be the archivist and look at primary resources for ideas on the
maps, artifacts, and diagrams.
- All members
will be editors and check their work for correct spelling, grammar,
punctuation, and neatness.
- Your teachers will
assign these roles. Group members may work together to find the
information, but all group members are expected to contribute.
Now take a moment to
look at the rubric for this project by clicking on the "Evaluation" link
at the left. This will help you get a better picture of what is
expected. If you do not have a clear picture of what your final product
should look like, what do you do? That's right! Ask questions! Do you
know when it is due? Do you know if you can work on it from home or just
at school? Do you know if you can get help or if it has to be only your
work? These are the types of questions you should be thinking of...
