Infographic Day!

Spanish 4 has been studying Narcoviolence with a Unit designed heavily around Kara Jacobs unit!  They were really engaged in the discussions we had throughout but today just blew me away!  

Our final project was to make an infographic!  

  
We spent 2 days in the library researching and a day assembling the posters.  Today, history fair day, they presented in 2 groups.  Group 1 stood by their poster awaiting guests from group 2.  As each person approached, student A summarized the main points of his/her research!  

As students moved from poster to poster, I walked among them listening to both the presentations and the follow up questions they were expected to ask!  I hid behind the tray of meat and cheese and sparkling grape juice to keep them from being nervous!  

 The snacks and grape juice idea came from Sharon Birch @sraslb!  It’s always a hit and I love doing it!

The infographics were a great alternative to a research paper and the kids were having so much fun going poster to poster that they were sad when they had to switch roles!  

The best part is that all of the speaking grades are already done and the projects are fun because they cover so many topics!
