Create Your 1 Pager

Here's my example.
Goal: Learn about our founding US government documents

Agenda: 
Journal
CNN Ten
Founding Documents 1 Pagers
Poster Walk
Individual Conference Prep

1. Journal 
What does it mean to have the right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?"

2. CNN Ten 
New week, new news!

3. Founding Documents 
  • You are signing up for a founding document from US Government. 
  • Your job is to make a 1 PAGER about the document following my example in class.
  • Find as many FACTS about the document as you can.
  • Your 1 pager must SPEAK FOR ITSELF since you will be giving each other feedback later.
  • Rule: Leave as little blank space as possible. Fill it up with information! 
  • Here are the full text documents (but Google will help you too)
Give us as many facts as you can, but make sure to hit the following:
  • Date published/ratified?
  • Who wrote it/signed it? 
  • Who was in favor of the document? 
  • Was anyone opposed to the document?
  • What were the main ideas of the document? 
  • Do we still use the document today? 
Forgot which one you chose last week? Here you go: 
4. Poster Walk 
  • Create a table in your journal that is 2 across, 5 down like this: 
  • Leave space to write! 
  • Use this table to take notes as we rotate around the room and look at your classmates' work. 
  • Write down main points from your classmates' work (you can use this chart on the quiz this Friday)
5. When You've Finished Everything Else....
Individual Conference Preparation 
  • One way I like to keep you on track with your graduation goals is by having 1:1 conferences. 
  • Government is just a one quarter class, so it's only 9 weeks to learn everything you need to learn.
  • There is an individual conference doc in Google Classroom for you to complete. 
  • Complete this over the next few days. 
  • Individual conferences will take place next week before Thanksgiving break.
Reminders: 
Happy Tuesday! Tomorrow we have a short day.
