MS/HS Humanities

During Middle School and High School Humanities classes we discussed current and historical events.  Students were challenged to work in groups to reconstruct an essay that had been scrambled up!  This essay told them about an event that happened that day in History! They had to locate the introduction, body paragraphs and the conclusion based on a lot of different clues.  When reflecting on this challenge, they all agreed that the essay did not have a very strong conclusion and that it was in need of transitions for better fluency.  Next, they crafted graffiti boards of possible transitions that can be used when writing essays.  In the video below you can hear the communication and collaboration - very impressive!
