Today’s lesson had two parts. I’ll break it all down below:
Analyzing the Inquiry Project Criteria
We used the Jigsaw strategy to consider the 4 criteria – taken from the IP Rubric – on which the written component of your IP will be assessed. Here’s the handout with the rubric:

you took some time to thoughtfully consider your inquiry question and craft it into a final, “I’m going to have a go with this question” draft.
5-Minute Inquiry Project Question Mini-Conferences
Dave and I want to check for understanding before you get started on your researching and writing journey so, to that end, we will be holding short conferences to review and sign off on your questions and action plan. These meetings will take place instead of our regularly scheduled class. Here are the schedules for those meetings:
Dave’s Schedule
Lawrence’s Schedule
For this meeting you MUST bring a final draft of your Inquiry Project One-Pager. That’s the same document you posted on Vista before the Christmas Break. The file is below for easy reference:
That’s all for today.
Stay warm,
– Lawrence
