Justice Monologues #2: Refinement and Delivery

Starter

1. Review the Justice Monologue  Do’s/Don’ts and Rubric and circle the bullet point items that you think you need to focus on in writing/refining your monologue.
2. Come up with one guiding question for your peer critique group based on the area of improvement you identified in #1. (Example: How can I enhance the beauty and rhetorical appeal of my speech?)
3. Any questions on the requirements?

 ​
NOTE: You will be self-assessing with the rubric as your ticket out the door. 

NEW Portfolio Guidelines and November/December Conference Calendar (on the docs page too)
What feedback or further revisions would you make?

• Point values for each assignment/conference?
• Assessment criteria for the conferences?
• Way I'm asking you to prep/reflect?
• Do we want to have occasional starters to get you to jot down a few thoughts about the portfolio categories?
• Do we want to change how much I weight "Apply your knowledge" vs "Portfolio" in infinite campus? Right now it is is 20/80. Is that really representative of amount of work you do? Should it be 50/50? Should there not be two categories and I just assign points to each thing based on how big of an assignment that is? Final Justice project might be 100 points, for example.
  

Rehearsal and Critiques (20 minutes)
Form a group of 3-4 and find a space either in the corner of this room, or the hallway or an empty classroom
Take turns delivering your Justice Monologue and giving each other feedback based on the rubric.  Be sure to help each other with your starter guiding questions.

FUN ICE-BREAKER- we're going to play a movement game that is fun, funny and gets the jitters out before delivering monologues!

Deliver (11:30, 2:00)
We'll begin delivering monologues with 45 minutes left in class

Ticket Out the Door: Reflect and Self-Assess!

1. At the bottom of the rubric, reflect on your classmates' monologues: What ideas stood out to you? What new questions did the monologues spark? Which ideas were challenged? etc..
2. Without giving yourself a grade, give yourself feedback on your monologue in the blank boxes to the right of each category description on the rubric.
