We might be able to start presenting tomorrow or Friday at the latest. Thursday - Today I will go over this sheet to help my 6th period class make their notecards. We will also go over an oral presentation rubric so that students learn how to present. First and third periods are still working on their presentations. By today some teams should be ready to make their notecards. HW - If you are not ready, then take your work home to get ready. You can also make your notecards at home if you didn't have time in class. Using a flash drive is quite helpful. Take your notes home if all you have to do is finish your notecards. Friday - Today student teams will have some time to finish up their PowerPoints and get mentally prepared to present. We have the order for next week's presentations.

Per 6 - G7, G8, G9, G10, G1, G2, G3, G4, G5 then G6. We should be able to get through two to three groups in one period so for all teams to present it should take most of the week.
