It's Exhibition Time!

It's about that time again! Exhibitions will be the week of February 14th-18th, and the times offered are: 1pm, 1:30pm, 2pm, or 2:30pm daily. Please make sure to return the form sent home or respond on this blog entry to confirm your time. It is first come, first serve, so please try to decide quickly in order to ensure you get the time that you want.

Notes about exhibitions:

• Students are required to have a powerpoint presentation. They should have a slide for EACH project that they have and it should reflect whatever it is they are talking about (bullet points of the information, pictures reflecting their information, etc.). They should not merely have "MATH" as a slide that they are going to show while they read information for it.
• Students may want to have note cards to help them remember information, but they should never have to read directly off the notecards. Remember, they are the "professional" of this career so they should know the information well enough that they can just speak from knowledge about it, using the notecards as a back-up.
• Students are required to have 3 Math projects, 2 ELA projects, 2 Science projects, 2 Social Studies, and 2 Personal Qualities projects.
• Students must show depth of knowledge in each topic. Many students know basic information of their career, but their job is to research information to add to that basic information to make it "new" information. They don't want to bore the class with information that everyone already knows.
• Students have 15-20 minutes to present their exhibition. Any time over or under this timeframe will result in a deduction of points. It is their responsibility to practice their exhibition to make sure they are within this timeframe.

Again, feel free to respond on this blog posting, or send the note in with the date and time you choose. I will then confirm the choice you have suggested so you can know exactly when your child's time is going to be. Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.
