Nations of the Western Hemisphere
Evaluation
Your groups will take turns presenting the information that you have discovered, as Experts, to the class, by using your posters,Nation Discovery Plans, and your Nation in a Box.
Once all of the Experts for the different nations have finished presenting their information, your nation groups will participate in a class discussion over what the nations had in common and how they are different. Make sure that all members of your group participate in this activity!
After the Comparison/Contrast discussion, you will all take your Nation Extension Questions around the room to the different posters and Nation Boxes and, on your own, reflect on the Nations' lifestyles and answer your Extension Questions.
You will be graded on the information in your Nation Discovery Plans, the relevancy of the items in your Nation in a Box, the clarity of your poster, your group's ability to work together, and on the Nation Extension Questions that you turn in. Make sure to look at the rubric for the guidelines!
