Today your student's group started on their research. They were given their first assignments and jobs for the group.
The Reporter: Start the research of information about the country. Perhaps this might be interesting facts or fun facts about the tradition chosen.
The Historian: Will start researching the history behind the tradition and the recipe. Why and how did it become a tradition, how did the food become associated with it?
The Head Chef: Will complete the given math worksheet that practices adding and subtracting fractions. Then they will convert one aspect of the recipe to make enough servings for the class.
The Food Critic: Will start to look up the ingredients history and find the relevance and connection between the ingredients and the traditional recipe.
At the end of each day following the jobs the students will turn in the worksheet with their job title on the top. This worksheet will have specific guiding questions to keep them on track. Turning it in will allow me to monitor their groups progress throughout the project.
**Tonight's Homework: Finish job worksheets to hand in and have ready to pass onto the next group member.
