Agenda day 1:


 * Pass out and go over the Venn diagram
 * Work on Venn diagram
 * Pass out and go over rubrics for new citizens project

Students will understand the American citizens role in their government differs from citizens in other countries. Students will understand this so they will gain a greater respect for the freedoms they have as citizens of The United States of America. Students will also learn this so if they ever live in another country they will understand their rights. Students will be hooked by a story of how in other countries citizens do not have the same rights as they do. (15 min)

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif"> Students will be assigned a country that they will be comparing The United States by the teacher. The teacher will assign countries randomly by writing the names of the countries he has chosen on the back of an index card and then passing one card to each group. Students will get the content they need on their country and The United states by filling out their Venn diagram. (See Venn diagram handout) Students will first fill out the United States with key information that they have gathered through their projects they have done so far this unit. The teacher will be walking around the room while students are filling out their Venn diagram offering ideas and instructions based on what students have for information on their charts. Students will find the answers for their countries side of the diagram by using links in the class Wiki. Students may listen to music during this time. The teacher will ask students to stop working with ten minutes left in class. Students at this point will hand in what they have completed on their Venn diagram and if a group is not done their Venn diagram they will be told to make a copy of what they have and bring to the teacher later in the day. Then the teacher will hand out the rubrics for the immigration class lesson. Students will go over the rubrics with the teacher to make sure they understand each of the rubrics. The teacher will ask students if they have any questions over these requirements and if any are asked the teacher will answer them. For homework students will finish their Venn diagram and begin brainstorming. (See attached content notes) (65 min)

If a group has not completed this yet the teacher will work with them to get their diagram complete. After assigning roles students will take the ideas they got from brainstorming they did for homework and talk in their groups about ideas for their lesson. Students will build an outline on inspiration for the teacher to look at by the end of class. Students will turn this outline into the teacher so he can comment on it for the next class.

Students will come in and pass their binder into the teacher who will put it into a box so he/she can grade it. Students will then sit down and hear each group’s presentations. During theses presentation the teacher will watch in the back of the room and fill out the requirement sheet as the group presentation is going on.
