Today students had a quiz on Chapters 6-11 of The Blue Flower. Then students worked in groups to become experts on a topic from chapters 1-11, got in a group with students who had other topics, and taught each other the information. If you were absent today, you can do this activity on your own...here it is...
For chapters 1-11 of The Blue Flower
A. Descriptions of the male members of the Hardenberg family – including quote references to back up your ideas
B. Descriptions of the female members of the Hardenberg family – including quote references to back up your ideas
C. Various methods of and ideals in education – including quote references to back up your ideas
D. References and reactions to the French Revolution – including quote references to back up your ideas
E. Romantic and other philosophical statements and ideals – including quote references to back up your ideas
You and your table will become expert on your topic – with each of you taking notes of your own.
After an appropriate amount of work-time, you will be moved into groups with people from each topic. You’ll be responsible for teaching your topic and learning about (and taking notes for) the other topics. Trading and copying notes rather than teaching and discussing would not be appropriate.
HW: Read and do journal for Chapters 12-17.
