Manifestation of Material Learned
Establish a classroom atmosphere that celebrates the sharing of learning. Have opportunity for students to practice new learnings. Make student learning available to the larger community, i.e. books students write are shared with other classes, students report in school paper, student work is displayed at school, etc.
Students carry out plans, report to groups and post results.
Objective: To follow through on a plan and examine results in terms of goals. To share their experiences with each other.
Activity: Students carry out their plans and return to their original group of four to report on success/lack of success. Group plots a post graph. Use the same graph plotted in step two. Only graph the "Energy Saver's" checklist (the 30 items). Check for improvements in pre and post graph. Post the second graph alongside the first. Each group reports to the entire class.
Assessment: Posted graphs, group work and group reports.
