Please comment on your preferred project and give me any ideas you have to improve it.

Also, if you have a second choice, please do the same.

I like the idea of the Grade 3/4 history lesson. It teaches us leadership, and allows the grade 3/4's to have time with us. We have never done this type of project before either so I think it would be a fun and new project.

I would really like to do either the 1st or 4th projects. The 1st seems really fun with the whole idea of possibly dressing up and putting on some sort of a show. But I also like the idea of the 4th because it would be fun to take the position of a history teacher and teach the kids what we have learned so far in a fun way that would make it exciting to them.

I think its cool if we did the 2nd Project with a dialogue with two people, in pairs. That way the dialogue is fun. We could research our characters more and write like we are that person better.

I also think the grade 3/4 lesson would be cool in pairs. There could be a lot of information so they could research together and present together after practicing. It is much easier to create a PWRPOINT with 2 people instead of many.

The essay would be okay too. It would take time as that is a long essay for all of us. But, we have much practice on writing, so that'd be cool too.

The first project is not really my style with drawing and writing in that way.

I would really prefer to do either project 1 or 4. I think number 4 would be really neat to be able to present a history lesson to the younger students but i also really like number 1 because it is fun to work in a group. I do not want to do the second project and I would only choose the third project option if there were fewer words required for the essay. This is because we have never written an essay that long before and I do not know how to structure an essay that long.

I would like to do either project 1 or 4. I think that project 1 would be a good small group project of about 3 because there will need to be different roles and a single person can not take on 5 different roles at the same time. Instead of writing a story, we could write a script and perform a short skit for the class instead of just telling it out like a monologue. I also think that project 4 would be interesting because it would be cool to go and teach some of the younger students about the history that we are learning today. I would rather project 1 over project 4 by a long shot especially if we can make it a skit and perform.

I like the idea on teaching the grade 3/4 because it lets us get a new perspective on the hardships and joys of teaching and will help us get into your shoes. we will also learn better about our topic as studies show that teaching is an excellent way to learn and get topics drilled into our heads. 😊

I agree with both Anna and Alana. The first and fourth projects sound really interesting. I am, however, confused about something in the first project. Will it just be a story writing project and that's it? Or will we be presenting anything to the class? I think that it would be interesting to write the stories and then present it in front of the class while dressed up in our characters. For the ones that do related to someone else's story we could present them together as if they were almost a group project and the stories can relate to each other as if, for example, a lord and lady are actually standing in front of us and telling us about their life. The fourth sounds good the way it is.

I'm not quite sure if the second option is writing a script and an essay, but I think that that would be the best option. It would be fun to organize (by myself or with a partner) a script showing an interesting story throughout the time of the crusades. The essay seems simple enough, meaning that the essay doesn't seem like a whole other project on top of the script. The second option does seem like the best option.

I like the idea of doing either project 2 or 4. Writing dialoge would be fun, and it would be really cool if we could act these out. Teaching the grade 3/4 class would be fun and teach us about how hard teachers work. I would like to do these projects in pairs, and it would be fun to do these.
