Graphic Organizer- (open, print and completely fill in notes )    


Day 2:
As a group of 3-4 discuss and share what you learned and decide how you plan to create a visual to explain all of Newton's Laws. Organize your ideas and create a rough draft , assigning students roles (videographer,narrator,presenter,further researcher, expert/interviewer, driver/passengers etc.). Every student must be assigned a role and your presentation must be approved by me by the end of the class today.

 Rough Draft Ideas Form- Print this form and complete with detail to explain your ideas.

Visual Choices Include: 
      1.    Video Skit with 3  examples (One real-world example per law)-  You will act out examples of each of Newton's Laws while having a narrator explain your reasoning.
                     
      2.   Video Interview ( Expert vs. Interviewer)- One student will be the host and interview the Newton expert questions that explain his laws with real-world examples given.    
            
      3.    Interactive Smartnotebook Presentation- You will create a presentation that includes explanations and real-world examples in an interactive format (videos, questions/answers, game, etc.)


Day 3 & 4:
Create your visual using the webquest rubric to be sure you are following all guidelines.
    - If you are creating a video, you will be using our class flipcamera (Please Be Safe, Respectful and Responsible)

Day 5:
