Rebound - THE END

Rebound - THE END



Rate the book from 1 - 5 and explain why you give the book this rating!

1 being lame like my star wars tee shirts and 5 being awesome like your math video's!


Consider things like characters, emotions, engagement, and realism. 

Once you have made your statement being dialogue with 2 other students and ask questions about their post.  Asking how they felt about characters and the final conclusion of the story.

Finding students that have different ratings will be a good place to get dialogue flowing.

Welcome back #80BEE

Check out this video on Creativity by Ken Robinson ( we watched his lecture on creativity a few months ago)




http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDZFcDGpL4U&list=PLuUI-SqNjGNE6GKFC_X042W4sVf51-rWu&feature=player_embedded

This video is challenging the role of education and the need for reform!

1. Do you agree or Disagree with the arguments he makes? be specific and make connections from BHJMS.

2. How could you apply any of the suggestions he makes at BHJMS?

3.  How did you like video? The style it was shot in to grab your attention

Application:

We are going to make a RSA video like this as our culminating project for Rebound!  I posted on twitter how you make these videos and shows how a class in the United States made them as well.
