  • That sounds fair to me, and as I look at other people's ideas and the conversations that are taking place it looks like many people are having the same problem.

     

    John-if you are reading (and if the ANUAH program continues) it would be really helpful next time to tell people before school gets out to bring their files to class.  I could have easily put stuff on to a zip drive before leaving for the summer. 

     

    Anyway, I'll go back and look at the objectives to see what I want to add in terms of skills and dispositions the students will learn.

     

    I also agree with what Heather said in her response that this was a great class and very helpful.  I've taken a lot of classes through ANUAH and I thought this one was great in terms of practicality.  I had to work extremely hard, but I'm proud of what I developed and look forward to using it in the fall.  As I develop and update this unit I'll add the changes so other people might be able to use it, which I know is your goal.

     

    Thanks you.

  • I'm attaching the matrix so you don't have to go searching for it.

  • I've uploaded the revised version of these unit pieces.

     

    Dale, I guess I'm still unclear what your expectation level is for the final project.  I'm still not able to include many of the actual handouts because they are filed away on my work computer.  But I have noted where they are and will definitely include them for people to use in the fall.

     

    Also, I'm pretty unspecific when it comes to which day people should be doing what lesson.  I've find that when I use other peoples units I have to take the ideas and make them their own anyway. So, the ideas are focused, but the scheduling of the unit is not.

     

    That being said, I am actually very excited to try teaching this unit in the fall.  I think it should be fun.

    Please let me know if you were looking for something different than what I have provided you with.

     

    Thanks,

    Alissa
