Unit 3 Assignment 1 Summative Assessment

I chose 3 lessons from the unit that will demonstrate an array of different learning targets that build on each other and that students will have to accomplish in this unit This will lead to assist them in their summative assessment. The summative assessment (see handout--) will ask students to create a claim and defend their argument. In lesson 1 students discuss the essential question along with their journal entries responses and questions that they asked in their journals (see journal rubric).

Students are formulating original ideas and creating a thesis that address and answers the essential
