Stay Focused!

I know it has been a long process and you all are wearing down a bit, but do not lose focus. We are almost there. The final project is due Monday and we start presenting. So don't let the internet demons distract you from your mission. Just say, "NO!"

Glogster

Here is my Glog. Please use this as a sample for your Project. Presentations will take place Monday, March 21. Some may spill over into other days that week, but EVERYONE must be ready then. If a teacher gives you time to work on your glog or research paper, USE YOUR TIME WISELY!

Don't Wait Until the Last Minute!


Only two weeks until the project is due. Do not wait until the last minute to do it. Take advantage of all the in-class time we are giving you and be sure to put in some time at home on this as well. You can all do it. I have faith in you.

Glog

Not to be confused with this Blog, you will be making a glog for your presentation! Presentations begin Monday, March 21! If you either missed my class or have not sat in on one of my classes going over how to use this glog, you MUST see me before Friday (March 4). If you do not have your login for the glog, please get it from me.
The rubric will be out soon. You need to be willing to spend some time to prepare this. If you have no idea what "glog" is, you should probably see Mrs. Boyce for your login, and ask a classmate for a brief tutorial. It is very user-friendly.

Welcome to FRP 2011

Two months ago all Freshmen began a journey of discovery when they chose their topics and began FRP (Freshmen Research Project). They have learned how to research, take notes, conduct an interview, create a hypothesis and procedure, and compile data for translation into charts and graphs.

Now we are only three weeks from the end, and I want to know what students have learned and what has been most memorable so far in the project. So kids, sound off and let us know what your thoughts are so far.

Due dates

Just so you know, data and graphs are due NEXT Thursday or Friday (March 10 & 11).
If you need any help with your data collection or graph, PLEASE see myself (Boyce) or Mr. Lindsey before the end of this week!
