=Stage 2 Determine Acceptable Evidence.=

Role: After we invite in our guests and interview them, we will each create an iMovie. The iMovie will include all the workers in the school hierarchy talking about their responsibilities, including you as a student! We will create artwork to put in our movie and we will each be the narrator of our own movie. Audience: When we are finished, we will each present our movie to one of the second grades. You'll each show your movie and answer questions. When we are done ALL the movies, they will be posted on the first grade website to share with your family. Situation: Writing a letter to show appreciation or to invite people to speak to the class to get information. Product/Presentation: You will create an i movie for social studies showing the hierarchy of the school government. It has been hard to find information on this, SO the iMovie could be a resource for other first grades. Standards (criteria from both rubrics): Your work will demonstrate or exhibit the use of 5 parts of the letter. The movie will include all the workers, student artwork, title and credits with the audio and video matched up. They will present it to a second grade and answer questions. || •self assessment •presentations || =Assessment Task Blue Print=
