Students should be proficient, basic, or below basic with the information
covered in the Prezi in the classroom today.
The question will be worth 3 points each. For this response questions, I will
be looking mainly on content and complete sentences. I will look at the
information and be able to see if students payed attention during the Prezi
and see if they could relate the story to how they would feel or react to
being the characters.
Data will be reviewed from this unit to see how the class did as a
whole, and how children did separately.
