Today's Objectives and Outcomes:

SWBAT (know & do)

* Share a Drive created document with a classmate
* Read the classmates 3 paragraph answer and insert comments within the body of the text
* Write a summary that captures the essence of the person and use that paragraph to introduce
the classmate to the rest of class
* Open a Presentation document within Drive and apply basic formatting to a slide

WARM-UP: Write a brief description at the end of your paragraph answering this question:

IF YOU WERE TO SELECT A FOOD TO DESCRIBE YOU, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
EXAMPLE: SOMEONE MAY DESCRIBE THEMSELVES AS AN OLIVE, THEY ARE PERFECTLY FINE BY THEMSELVES, BUT CAN ALSO EASILY BE A PART OF A GROUP


The first part of the block will be used to make final adjustment to the 3 paragraph assignment. Students will then meet with their 8:00 clock partner to share their documents. Once the documents are shared, each student will read the others paragraphs and insert comments regarding the interesting items presented within the work.

Once this portion is finished, each student will then write a summary paragraph about their clock partner using the information presented in their paragraphs. This should be at least 6 full sentences and can be read as a formal description of the person. The paragraph should begin....

I would like everyone to meet _________( name).

The intro section should last through the first 3/4 of the block. The last section of the block will be spent introducing the class to the "features of a proper presentation"
