Feb 28 - Rubric Review and Discuss Stimulus Material Task

Hey All,

Just wanted to remind you to check the calendar. If you have a 6th period free, Ms. Cohen's class will be hosting guest speakers today (2/28) and Friday (3/2). Please email her for more information.

Today, we will review the rubrics for PTII and then dive into our stimulus material activity.

Regards,

Mr. T

Feb 9 - Final TMP Workday

Today is the final workday.

Additionally, we will have one or two practice presentations. We will also view a sample of a very solid TMP to use as inspiration for next week. Use this time to continue to enhance your arguments, presentations, alignment with the rubric, and speaking abilities.

Late next week I will formally post the PTII stimulus materials. The expectation will be for you to read them and then we can debrief after break.

Feb 5 - TMP Workday #3 and First Practice Presentation

Your Capstone teachers were hard at work over the weekend passing the TMP scorer training.

Nothing profound discovered from the trainings, but it did confirm our knowledge about the rubric and the tasks in general.

Today we will review some of those findings and some materials from The College Board. Stay engaged, ask questions, and work hard.

Feb 2 - TMP Workday #2

Yet another workday. Today I would like you to really think about the design of the presentation and the role of each group member.

Practice Presentations
Think about signing up for a practice presentation on the 5th or the 7th of February (voluntary opportunity). You will be given a full amount of time to present and get scored by your peers. I will have a sign up sheet available soon.

Presentation Order
Additionally, TMPs will be held the entire week of the 12th (with the 12th itself included). I will inform you of the presentation order before the period is over.

Work Hard!
