1. Evolution Project
This is a project I use as a test following our unit on Evolution. The students work in groups to make a poster illustrating the main concepts in the unit. They are asked to "show, don't tell" and then are given oral questions to answer when the project is graded. I give them the questions when they get the project instructions and then write them on different colored index cards. When I grade the poster each student picks one card of each color and only answers those questions. Since they don't know which they will get they need to study them all. They can look at the poster while answering but can't help each other out. They all get a chance at the extra credit question. This project works well with both English language learners and Special Ed students since they are asked to "show" what they have learned. They can not write definitions on the poster. They also complete a peer evaluation form, their grade is adjusted accordingly for a low participation evaluation by their peers.
