Eng 9: Writing Assessments, Cardboard Challenge Prototypes & Ready for Roots 3

4G. On Wednesday you have 30 minutes to work on your narrative writing assessment.  It is absolutely due on Friday.

Then you have 30 minutes to work on your low-res prototype.   (You will have 30 minutes to build on Friday)

You also have Roots 3 quiz on Friday.

Your finished hi-res prototype is due next Thursday.  You will have time on Tuesday to build as well.

2B & 4B.  On Thursday, you will have 20 minutes to work on your narrative writing assessment.  It is absolutely due on Thursday.

You will also take your Roots 3 quiz on Thursday.

And you will have the rest of time to build your low-res prototype.



Here's the narrative writing  rubric and suggestions on the format/content again -- also available in your Eng 9 OUT folder on Google Drive.

Personal Narrative Essay
Single Point Rubric
Options.  Any of these may be fictional (made up) OR non-fiction (true stories)
  1. Tell a story about a time your “super power” saved the day or your “kryptonite” lost the day.
  2. Write a letter in which you advocate for yourself by asking a teacher, friend, parent or someone else for help.  Within the letter, tell a story that shows why you need that help OR Write a letter in which you advocate for someone else by asking a teacher, friend, parent or someone else to help that individual.  Within the letter, tell a story that shows why they need that help.
  3. Tell a story about a time you met someone else’s needs OR a time when your needs were met by someone else.


Criteria
Evidence of Exceeding the Standard (clever, insightful, unique, powerful, creative, meaningful, professional)
What Meeting the Standard Looks Like
Evidence of Needs for Improvement (gaps, missing pieces or evidence, incomplete thoughts)
Details
(WRITING)

I like how your personal narrative (story) is full of showing details by appealing to the five senses in  your descriptions.  I like how you move beyond just listing what happened and get into describing how it happened, what it looked like, what it felt like.  

Narrative Sequence & Organization
(WRITING)

I like how your narrative is well organized, with a clear beginning, middle and end.  I like how the order of your story makes sense and seems intentional.

MUGS
(MUGS)

I like how any writing included is properly spelled and features proper capitalization

Timeliness
(HABITS of WORK)

I like how you turned it in within 24 hours of the agreed upon due date

Perseverance
(HABITS of WORK)

I like how you created pre-writing evidence (sketchnote, storyboard) and more than one draft (working draft, submission draft) of your essay to show that you worked through the process.  I like that you took the feedback given and put it to use.


OUTLINE and EXAMPLE

PARAGRAPH ONE.  INTRODUCTION.  
How might you lead your reader into this story?  
How might you hook your reader to be interested in the person, place, or object?  
How might you focus on the big ideas of this story -- the emotions, the learning, the message to get your reader hooked?


BUG LIST..
Have you ever . . .?
Everyone . . .
SInce the beginning of time . . .
Did you know . . .?
Webster’s Dictionary defines . . .

“Are you seriously wearing that?”
It is gross and disgusting to most of my friends.  To me?  It is a symbol, a totem, a remarkable piece of myself in the shape of a Kansas City Royals baseball cap.  This one piece of dilapidated headgear represents not only my growing up, but reminds me of one of the most important experiences of my life:  the spring I pooped my way to popularity.


PARAGRAPH TWO.  DESCRIPTION.  
Describe the person, place, or object.  
How might you include details that help your reader see, feel, experience that place?

TELL. My hat is blue.  It has a dirty spot on it.  It is banged up.  The letters are ratty.

SHOW.  When I put my Kansas City Royals hat on my head, I can hear the brown stains crack around my scalp. I don’t mind it, but the odor of twenty-plus years of canoe races, hikes and 5Ks have taken its toll on the noses of those around me.  
5 Senses.  Sight. Sound. Taste. Touch. Smell.

PARAGRAPHS THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX . . ?

Tell a story about that person, place or object.  What happened?  Use as many paragraphs as it takes to tell a good story.
Pay careful attention to the order of your details.

FINAL PARAGRAPH.  CONCLUSION.  
So what?  So you’ve told the story.  
What’s the big takeaway you want people to understand about your story?  
Why does this story stick with you?

I will never get rid of this hat.  It means so much to me as a symbol of who I used to be and who I managed to turn out to be thanks to some fantastic people in my life.  I know it’s gross.  I’m aware.  And yet sometimes it’s the gnarly objects in our life that remind us that the most unpleasant experiences are often the ones that give us the greatest rewards.

Eng 9: Cardboard Challenge. Design Sprints & Next Steps.

Today's class crushed it Cardboard Challenge style.  We ran a version of a design sprint: a way of running through our design process while focusing on user needs, generating ideas, and getting feedback in a hurry.

Remember we are using the DEEPdt design process.
DISCOVER.
EMPATHIZE.
EXPERIMENT.
PRODUCE.

Today we focus on EMPATHIZE & EXPERIMENT.

EMPATHY Phase. We started with Empathy Interviews.  Here's a list of questions that were generated last week and a couple of pictures from the's interviews with Mrs. Howatt's classes.









EMPATHY Phase. From here we came back to the room and unpacked our interviews using Post-It notes to look for trends and insights.




This led to our 8 Box-ing.  8 ideas in 4 minutes.




We then created 3 panel storyboards from the ideas that resonated the most with the design team members.




We laid out our storyboards on a few tables and used LEGO bricks to provide non-verbal feedback.
WHITE/GRAY: Questions.
RED/YELLOW: Concerns.
BLUE/GREEN: Loves.





Next Steps . . .

Next class we start making our low-res prototypes out of manila folder material and some other cardboard we have.  These are due Friday.  A low-res prototype MUST BE COMPLETED before I provide your two pieces of official cardboard.   Finished Prototypes for Users: DUE NEXT THURSDAY & FRIDAY, Oct 27 & 28.
OUT OF CLASS WORK.
Roots Quiz 3.  Thursday and Friday.
Remember.  Over Roots 1-3.

Narrative Writing Assessment.
Due. Thursday & Friday. 10.20-21.

Work on Design for Cardboard Challenge.

Eng 9: Roots, Blogs, Reading, Design & Stories: So Much to Do

ROOTS 3. (10 Minutes) Go to the link in the sidebar for Roots & Quizlet.  Find the Roots 3 Quizlet and get familiar with the new words by using the various review tools and games there.  There will be an activity early next week to help you know them better.  There will be a quiz over Roots 1-3 on Wednesday/Thursday.

READING & DESIGN.  Cardboard Articles. (DISCOVERY PHASE) (30 minutes)

Choose one of these articles to read and complete a Notice/Wish/Wonder organizer. You will find that organizer in the English 9 OUT Folder in Google drive.  It is due today in class.  This is a reading assessment.

About the Google Cardboard Virtual Reality Headset .

About the Perfect Cardboard Box .

About Cardboard Drumming.

BLOG.
We are going to hold off on blogging right at the moment.  It's a little chaotic.  There's a lot of moving parts and pieces and I want to be sitting here to help us get on track with it.  It's totally okay.   Nothing is going to count against you.  We just need to be doing it consistently and on a schedule and that's on me.  Not a big.  We'll get back to it.

DESIGN: CARDBOARD CHALLENGE: DESIGNING FOR OTHERS.  EMPATHY & EXPERIMENT PHASES.  (10 Minutes)

PERIOD 4G:  I'd like you to prepare for your empathy interviews (to be conducted on Monday) by coming up with the four or more questions your design team (groups of 1, 2 or 3 members) will ask your user to help find out what problems they could use a solution to, what might bring them joy, or what might entertain them.

PERIOD 2B & 4B: Today I'd like you to take a single piece of paper, fold it into 8 Boxes, and doodle/note, work up 8 different ideas for what you might make to meet the needs/solve the problem/entertain/bring joy to your user.  You are in Experiment mode.  A really good time to mess around and try new things.  It isn't time to commit yet.   Take a picture of your 8 Box and put it in your Google Drive English IN folder.

1st NARRATIVE WRITING ASSESSMENT (EMPATHY & ADVOCACY) There's a rubric in your Google Drive IN folders.  (Remaining Time in Class.)

I'd like you to practice your sketchnote skills by sketchnoting your ideas for your writing assessment.  You might use index cards, you might want to use scrap paper or photo copy paper.  You might want to use your design kits.   Take pictures of your sketchnotes.  Put them in your Google Drive English IN folder.

OUT OF CLASS WORK.
Work on your Writing Assessment.
Due Next Thursday/Friday.

Work on designs/prototypes of Cardboard Challenge.

Roots Quiz 3.
Next Wednesday/Thursday.

Eng 9: Work. Work. Work.

Hey folks,

Friday, you have a day to update your blogs and post your work on the blog tracker.

You have a day to complete or revise your Playlist for Others.

Remember there's a rubric for this.  (The media standard is optional.)
To cite your songs properly in your project for the research standard you should follow this format.


  • Artist/Performer's name "Name of the Song" (Year of Release)
which becomes . . . 
  • Pearl Jam "Evenflow" (1993)


You can take it to the next level by adding the video or the link.

Pearl Jam "Evenflow" (1993)

While I'm on a roll, here's an example of an explanation.  This is why I would include this song on Mr. Brackett's playlist:

I included "Evenflow" by Pearl Jam (1993) on Mr. Brackett's playlist because he was in high school when this song came out and I know how much he loves the '90s.  He told me it was his favorite era of music.  Just listening to this song I can immediately picture Eddie Vedder wearing a flannel shirt and throwing his hair all around.  I think Mr. Brackett would enjoy rocking out to this song while driving his truck through the back roads of Temple, playing the bass line on the steering wheel.


You have a day to study for Roots Quiz 2  that will cover Roots 1-2 next TUESDAY.

And finally you have a day to start your one-page reflection essay on the Cardboard Challenge.

You have three options to choose from for your essay.

Option A. Product/Process/Outcome.  
  • Describe what you made using specific, meaningful details.
  • Describe how you made it by sharing specific step by step directions in what it took to make it.
  • Describe how you feel about the final results by discussing what you like about your final product and what you might do differently next time or on a different iteration.

Option B.  Yourself/Others/Creativity.
  • Discuss what you learned about yourself from completing the cardboard challenge, including things you didn't realize about your abilities and talents, struggles and strengths.  
  • Discuss what you learned about others as a result of completing the cardboard challenge, including the experience of interviewing others and their needs or perhaps what it is like to work with a partner.
  • Discuss what you've learned about the creative process and what it is like to make something for others and to make it using only a particular set of resources.

Option C.  Three Things You've Learned About Creativity
  • Discuss three things you've learned about creativity from completing the cardboard challenge.
For this essay, I want you to keep it within a one-page limit, 11 or 12 point font, single spaced.  (Don't play around with the fonts to make it seem like you wrote more than you did.  That's not the point.  Also: super annoying.)  The point is to use specific details to get your ideas across to your reader in a short amount of space.  

Here's what I'll be assessing (grading):

Your Details (writing) How well did you use specifics to show exactly what you mean?
Your Organization (writing) How well did you use paragraphs to organize your thoughts and ideas?
Your Voice (writing) How well does your personality come through in your writing?
Your MUGS (MUGS - mechanics, usage, grammar, spelling) 
Your Timeliness (Due next Thursday, Oct 22)


SHOW YOUR LEARNING.

Blog.  Get caught up with your evidence.  At minimal, post your 5 Card Flickr from Week One, your playlist from others for Week Two, pictures/notes/plans from Cardboard Challenge for Week 3, and then your finished Cardboard Challenge or more pictures/notes/plans for Week 4.  Those are the required posts and the thinking I most want/need to see.

Study.  Roots Quiz 2 . Tuesday.

Know the Roots Quiz 2 (lists 1 & 2)& What They Means.
Other Evidence of Learning:  In addition to the taking the quiz, you may want to create a roots product that demonstrates your understanding of the roots and what they mean.  Some of us struggle with quizzes as a way of proving we know something, but if we get a chance to use our knowledge, we knock it out of the park.  Consider writing a story, a set of instructions, making a video, recording a podcast, building something on Minecraft or in LEGO, recording a song, drawing a comic strip, or some other way of showing me that you know those roots and what they mean in a way that shows you truly understand.
You may want to make one of these for Roots 1 as well. 
Due. Tuesday 10.20.15

Eng 9. Playlist for Other Rubric and How to Post Your Links on Blog Tracker.

Hi folks,

I thought this rubric was shared with you on a previous post and it was not.  I'm apologizing for that now.  It is the same criteria as what we put up on the whiteboard in the room -- it is just more descriptive and provides more feedback.

Reminder, part of the project was to create a piece of "cover art" for your partner's playlist.

Turning in Your Blogs.

Here's a brief video to help you turn in your blog posts properly on the blog tracker.  I take you step by step.  By Friday, you should have nine posts up, including your Playlist for Others, ideas/designs/process for your Cardboard Challenge, and a 5 Card Flickr that tells the story of solving a problem.  (These have all been described in earlier posts.)




What else could you blog about?  Here are some ideas:


  • Oreo Challenge. Manilla Folder Challenge.  Lego Challenge.
  • Any and all of the graphic organizers so far with an explanation explaining what it is and your thinking.
  • Any draft or planning or sketchnoting or doodling so far with an explanation of your thinking.
  • Your Thirty Circles.
  • Poetry.  Creative Writing. Reflections. Things You are Seeing that Make You Think. 
  • Comments and Critiques and Dialogues
  • Videos That You Want to Talk About.
  • Music That You Want to Talk About.
  • Memes That Make You Think and Laugh And Think.
  • Articles That Make You Think.
  • Post-Its and sorts with explanations.  
  • Anything at all that shows your thinking.  Any of the work you do for class that shows your thinking.  

Here are a couple of links to sample blog posts you could use as guides.  These show you the sort of thinking and explanations that should be included.  These are not perfect posts -- these are good examples to help you see what meets the standard for thinking and content.




Also, here's a video showing some of our problem sorting thinking from class today.  Really cool work today everyone.

Eng 9: Suiting Up for Cardboard Challenge: Day Two: Discovery Phase

Dream Time.

We'll start today with Dream Time to get our brains opened up.  Expect doodling . 10 min.

Roots. 
Then it will be a dive into Roots 1 and a mashup game we call "Frankenword."  Remember there is a quiz on Friday.   I'll also show you how your "Frankenwords" could be used to create more evidence of your vocab understanding.  (10 min.)

Cardboard Challenge Day Two: Discover Phase.

We'll start  with three stations.  You'll need to spend time at each generating ideas on Post-Its.  (15 min.)  

Station 1.  Problems Worth Solving (personal, school, local, statewide, nationwide, worldwide)

Station 2.  Joys Worth Bringing (What makes you smile, laugh, happy cry?  What about others?)

Station 3.  Passions Worth Sharing (Your interests, likes and loves as well as those of others)

Then we'll divide into three groups to sort the Post-Its into trends, identify interesting outliers, and see how this will help us with our Cardboard Challenge work. (10 min.)

Suit Up.  Who will you be working with during the Cardboard Challenge?  You may work in groups of one, two, or three.

At this point, there should be enough time left in class to blog about your work today, post to your blog, and turn in your playlists.  On Friday, we'll start with a quick 2x2 grid activity.   This will help us determine ideas for our cardboard challenges.  And you'll have the rest of class to experiment with the maker cart materials to create prototypes of what will become your cardboard challenge.  (Next week -- you'll have Tuesday and Thursday to build, document and blog.

Eng 9: Caine's Arcade & the Global Cardboard Challenge

Today you'll be working on your own as we introduce our first big project.

Caine's Arcade.

Watch this video.


And then watch this video to learn what the Global Cardboard Challenge is all about.




Complete a Notice/Wish/Wonder organizer to demonstrate your understanding of these two videos.   (Timestamp means tell me exactly where in the video you are getting this idea.  You will need to make your own copy of the organizer.)  

I'm not here to answer questions for you or to have conversations, look over shoulders.  You will have to do your best work to show me your thinking. HOWEVER, if you would prefer to audio/video record your responses, you may do so.  Just be certain you e-mail or share with me what you create.

Support each other and ask Mr. Knight for help with sharing your work with me.

After completing the notice/wish/wonder organizer, turn your thinking to possibilities.

If you were to bring joy to other people by building something, what might you build? Make a list.

If you were to solve a problem others are facing by building something, what might you build? Make a list.

If you were to showcase your passions or interests by building something, what might you build?  Make a list.

Post each of these three lists on your blog. 

If you get done with the above during class, check your work and make sure it does the best job it can demonstrating your thinking.  

You can then use the rest of time to study up on Roots 1.  There's a quiz next week.

Humanities: Cardboard Challenge Essay & IGNITE Rubric

Today we started class with a quick improv game to see how we felt about our Cardboard Challenge Projects.  It was interesting to hear the various responses.  I'm glad so many folks felt great about their work and I wondering why so many folks didn't.

From there we did a little Pictionary-style activity to prep for Roots 2.  REMEMBER: The quiz is over BOTH Roots 1 & 2. And you have a word map due over Roots 2! (Or a roots-based word product of some sort.) Super important that you study both.  Click on the link in the sidebar to find your Roots study tools.

That led to breaking up the class in two to cover the expectations for the Cardboard Challenge IGNITE research presentation and the Cardboard Challenge 5 Paragraph Reflective Process Essay.  Those expectations are in the rubric below:


This rubric is available as a PDF in your Google Drive.

Homework:
