Day # 2 11/27

Day #2 - Tuesday, November 28th



Map
First Task:
The songs each of you create will be centered around one of FOUR locations:
  1. San Francisco, California
  2. New York, New York
  3. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
  4. Chicago, Illinois
Our task for the period is to INVESTIGATE different events that occurred in and around these locations and create a large visual.  This visual will serve the purpose of outlining the KEY EVENTS, PEOPLE, INNOVATIONS and INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENTS that marked this historical time period.  Students will read through chapters 19 & 20 and be assigned a specific location and report their findings. Students will also peruse last year’s book for examples.

Task # 2:
I Think - I See - I Wonder


Yesterday we spent a lot of time looking at photos surrounding the Industrial Period.  
You and your partner finished the SCAVENGER HUNT (worth 5 points of the final grade).
Today, we work individually with the provided photos.  This will be worth 5 points as well.


Browse through the 39 photos in the FLICKR.  Determine which of the photos INTRIGUE you the most.
 Make a TOP THREE list.
Now pare that down to a single photo that you find compelling.
We are going to ask you to get creative with sensory details so it really should be a photo that
makes you think.


Next you will be given the  THINK SEE WONDER handout. You will need to work toward
completing this worksheet. This handout requires a full page of writing in addition to the completion of
the table.
example
HW: Complete worksheet--the requirement is a full sheet of freewriting.
