Day 9 Thursday 7/21/10- Putting Boards Together is More Work than I Thought

Since most groups were done collecting data, today the campers began working on their display boards. This is the part of the project where students never budget enough time for themselves, and they quickly realized how much is involved in putting together a solid board.

The first thing students worked on was typing up the different panels of their display boards. They really hard a difficult time with the style of writing required. Passive voice is really hard to write at first, while personal pronouns are hard to omit. They quickly realized this.

Writer's block?

After this we broke out the glue sticks, construction paper, and a paper cutter so they could begin to assemble their boards.

Those groups that finished, got time to work on practicing their presentations and get ready giving them in front of the whole group. I can't wait to see the final result tomorrow.
