Common Core
Speaking. Working in small groups, develop a list of
regulations that you would like to have in your classroom and
explain your reasoning for each one. Develop a presentation
in which you attempt to persuade your classmates to adopt
your regulations. Then, develop a separate presentation
in which you attempt to persuade your teacher, acting as
a member of the school board, to adopt your regulations.
How will you alter your presentations for the two different
audiences?
Listening. Research the positives and negatives of taking
part in work-based learning. Using the Internet, find video
footage that discusses work-based learning. Compare
and contrast the speakers’ information, points of view,
and opinions. How are they similar and different? Using
the information presented, create a list of positives and
negatives that you might encounter when taking part in a
work-based learning program.
