live from room 228
For their final exam, I decided my students were simply tested-out from this spring of state-testing craziness. So I borrowed a unit from a great teacher-friend of mine, and used the final project in place of an exam. After reading and analyzing the Virginia Woolf story "Widow and the Parrot", groups created newscasts to present the events of the story and explore the motives of the characters in it.
Overall, the kids did a FANTASTIC job! I've uploaded a couple clips here, and hopefully will finish uploading more soon!
