Product/Presentation:Imovie or GarageBand Standards (criteria from both rubrics): product: presentation: • Work Samples: check note cards for debate. Each student should have a set of note cards that include main points to be made in the debate, as well as quotations to be integrated into the debate, but not used solely as points. • Test: culminating test on the American Revolution. This test will ask for events leading up to the war, foreign influences and feelings. It will also look for battle specifics and the student should be able to match each figure to what accomplishments they are most closely associated with. || • Reflect: Why your person felt the way they did, was it personal reasons that influenced their decisions or was it ideas for a grander life style for the colonists? • Reflect: How life would be different if a loyalist view point one out among the colonies? Would it only affect our country or would it affect the entire world? || =Assessment Task Blue Print=

//**Through what authentic performance task will students demonstrate understandings?**//
 * //**Task Description:**// **(T)** ||
 * You woke up this morning in the charged years leading up to the American Revolution. To your horror everybody is mistaking you for a famous figure of the time, and it has fallen to you to debate the war using this person's point of view to prevent the future from changing. In order to do this it is your job to research how your person felt about the idea of war, this is important because much like in modern politics, not everybody felt the same way. In research you will notice that some of the view points overlap while others are drastically different. If you find this be reassured that you are doing a thorough research job. The debate that will result from all the research will be judged by a panel of experts. ||
