Thoroughly research a figure from the French Renaissance in order to create a graded 3-5 minute power point presentation which will be made before the class. Two of the slides in the presentation will have all appropriate accents added once they are projected onto the white board. Please be prepared in advance to choose two slides for this purpose. The last component of the presentation is a creative activity designed to test/exercise the comprehension of the rest of the class on at least three concepts or pieces of information delivered in the presentation.
*Students will research, prepare and present in pairs, sharing equal work loads.
* Power point slides should have a maximum of two well crafted and informative present tense sentences each. Many visuals are recommended.
* Each power point should be comprised of a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 10 slides. *all writing and presenting will be done in French.
*students will be given a dry-erase marker on the day of presentation so as to make the accent additions to the two slides they have chosen to amend.
*creative comprehension activities may include but are not limited to cross-word puzzles, word searches, fill in the blank-style worksheets, or exercises encouraging other students to speak aloud.
****partners have been predetermined and will be given the opportunity to choose Renaissance figures out of a hat to ensure justice for all!
Partners are as follows:
Janine Chow and Eleanor Lichter
Sarah Fekini and Natasa Trajkovic
Kenneth Gudel and Rachel Latterich
Zoe Tracy and Fearghas Smith
Jack Hanlon and Monica Pastor
Kieran Naughton and Christopher Prijic
Sarah Jurkoic and Danny Wexler
