The Adventures of Tom Sawyer Ch. 1-9 Review
SL 8.1, RL 8.1-4, L 8.1 and L 8.5
Learning Objective: Students will engage effectively and come to a consensus through collaborative discussion (SL 8.1). Students will cite textual evidence (RL 8.1-4), demonstrate proper use of writing conventions and figurative language (L 8.2 and L 8.5).
Teaching Objective: Students will work effectively in small groups to complete the chapter review handout. The score will be a percentage of cooperative learning, and accuracy.
Directions: In groups of three to four, complete the study guide. You can use your notes, novels, study guides. (Yes, you may need to use some more than once, and two blanks would require two answers). You will be evaluated on your responses and your effectiveness as a group. Write each group member’s name and rate each member in each category using the rubric scale. Total each score out of 6 possible. Once the paper has been corrected, that score will be entered in the handout score. Your end score will be a percentage of your cooperative learning total and the score on the handout. Example: If the handout gets 100%, and you get a score of 6 on cooperative learning, you would get the total points possible.
Rubric Scale
