IMPORTANT: Holiday Assignment will be COUNTED as part of your CA1 for Term 3 (20%)

Instructions:

a) You will be doing this in your project group. Each group will be assigned one topic to focus on.

c) Assign the following roles for each person in group:

Questioner: To come up with interesting DISCUSSION QUESTIONS for the chapters in the book, especially questions like “What does this tell us about…….” or “Why do you think…..” [Hui Yu]

Vocab Wizard: To pick out IMPORTANT or DIFFICULT WORDS in the chapter and explain what it means to the group. This SHOULD NOT BE just copied from dictionary BUT MUST be EXPLAINED in relation to the TEXT! You can be creative in your explanation and use PHOTOS or DRAWINGS or CLIP ART to explain the meanings clearly. [Nissa]

Quote Picker: To pick out IMPT QUOTES from chapters and start a discussion about the meaning and significance of the quote to the story like development of plot, character, or theme [Eric]

Character Tracker: To identify important characters in each chapter and track the development of the character though the chapters through what character says or does and what other character says about this him/her. You must explain what it tells YOU about the character like the personality.

f) The work above MUST BE DONE BASED ON Chapters 1 – 10

g) Like your PROJECT WORK, you need to post regularly and comment /discuss regularly if you want to SCORE. You know how important the marks are to you BY NOW, so do work hard. Anyone with NO INTERNET ACCESS, you CAN use the SCHOOL LIBRARY COMPUTERS, so I won’t accept any excuses.

Reflection

Posted on April 10th, 2008 in Jie Cheng, Reflection by jiecheng  Tagged

  I was asked to do the research on propaganda. At first, I didn’t really understand the meaning of propaganda. I kept posting unrelated things. I was given a book by ms lee. Ms Lee said that there were propaganda images in it but still couldn’t find any propaganda in it after reading so many times.

   We just post whatever we wanted to post without any discussion. Therefore, during our presentation, we did very badly. We teach our classmates wrong information so that we have to redo the slides again.

   When we were told that our group has passed, we were complacent that we didn’t bother to post reflection and stop posting everything. By the time Ms Lee said that our group would be going to fail, we quickly post our last minute work. I learned that we shouldn’t be complacent although we passed. I would continue to post research on the blog.

Why is propaganda used?

Propaganda is used to influence large number of people’s reactions like an advertisement. It is also used as a weapon because of the power that comes with public support for winning wars.

Reflection on planning

Posted on March 18th, 2008 in Feng Li, Jie Cheng, Reflection by jiecheng  Tagged

I have understand why planning is so important in our life and if I fail to plan, I am planning to fail. My group members and I have experience this before. Not only planning is use in our english summary, we can also use it in many ways. Last Friday, we went to Belieu house and Canberra Sec instead of Fort Canning without bothering to plan or do researches before going. We thought it will be an exciting trip but ended up a wasted and unlucky trip. Although I didn’t go for the second trip to Ford factory, I knew that my group have learned alot of things from there because they planned. I have learn a lesson and if I am going for a trip again, I will do some planning before going.

We will be divided into two groups for tomorrow trip. One group will go ford factory while the other will go Bealien house as Ms lee said that we can’t visit two places in a day. Please post research on the places too. Joranna, please divided the group.
