As part of the SIP (School Improvement Plan) goals for Githens Middle School, students will produce four or more writing artifacts across the curriculum quarterly to demonstrate academic growth using rubrics.
The Quarterly Writing Pieces are listed below. Note: I will start with Quarter 1 and add to the list per quarter as the school year progresses.
Quarter 1 - Create a Civilization Assign Date: 10/28/2014 Due Date: 10/31/2014 Students will create an early civilization so that they can identify and apply the key elements of human survival. The paper should be 5-7 paragraphs long and should include a civilization name and a map with physical geography details (for example: mountains, hills, grasslands, deserts, oceans, rivers, valleys, etc.)
