Final Project

As stated earlier, we are an MYP school and my students have certain projects they have to turn in at various points in the year. This unit lends itself quite well to a 700-1200 word essay. The students receive a rubric for the essay. The rubic is quite specific, but they are evaluated on things such as how well they explain how science is applied to solving a specific problem; they must discuss and evaluate the use of science in addressing the problem; they must communicate effectively and document their sources properly. The full essay activity follows in the activity section.
