This week I have had a couple of meetings with Dr. Audet to discuss creating a webpage for our Leos Club. I am really happy that he was willing to spend time and money, even though he didn't have to. I really think that after break we are really going to start to get the ball rolling on getting the club really started. I also needed to do some more civics standards for Mrs. Cervantes, but they're so hard to tie into my project, so I just have been writing her essays that interest me. Of course they involve the standards though. I just got done researching and typing up an essay about the scope and limits of rights and obligations as demographic citizens, the relationships among them, and how they're secured. I basically wrote about how our rights are protected, how we obey them, and what the naturalization process is.
English Standards:
- RI 2 Determine two or more central ideas of text and analyze their development over the course of the text, including how they interact and build on one another to provide a complex analysis; provide an objective summary of the text.
- W 8 Gather relevant information from multiple authoritative print and digital sources, using advanced searches effectively; assess the strengths and limitations of each source in terms of the task, purpose, and audience; integrate information into the text selectively to maintain the flow of ideas, avoiding plagiarism and over reliance on any one source and following a standard format for citation including footnotes and end notes.
I can use these standards because when doing my essays for my civics standards I have to do research on multiple different sites. While doing my research I make sure to write the information in my own words and to post the link of the website that I used on my work cited page.
