RAFT WEB Project

Good afternoon Parents and Students,

     As you are putting together the final pieces of this month's WEB project, I wanted to remind you of the rubrics that will be used for grading.  All students do need to turn in a written RAFT assignment.  Please view the October RAFT packet that was sent home prior to conferences for the details of that assignment.  This can be typed or handwritten, but should be in ink and final draft form.  

On the last page of the WEB packet is the grading rubric for the written assignment.  Please refer to that when making final revisions and checking for quality and completeness.  

Each child then need to decide HOW he/she wants to present the RAFT to the class.  It is possible to simply stand in the front of the room and read the assignment, however we are encouraging them to choose a creative medium to present the assignment.  We discussed in class using a Powerpoint or Google slide presentation, a prezi, a video to bring in and have us watch, an audio file for us to listen to, or even creating an ebook or other app based tool to present the assignment.  They aren't creating anything new here, but finding a fun and creative way to present the written RAFT.

There is a link below to the rubric that will be used for the presentation format of the WEB project.  

Rubric for my RAFT presentation

Good luck!  
Mrs. Wagner  :)

October WEB Project Information


After speaking with parents at conferences, it became aware that not all of you have seen the October WEB Project information that came home with your son/daughter early last week.  I've attached the documents to this post.  Feel free to view and print these for your reference as you help your child prepare for this project.

As always feel free to email or respond to this post if you have questions.
Enjoy your week,
