Chief's Judgement Guide

This is the guide used by the tribal chief to judge the quality of your presentation. This guide will help you get the best possible mark

The students will be evaluated in two ways... by the tribal council (the class) and by the chief (the teacher). The tribal council will judge whether or not the information gathered in your quest will be sufficient to save the tribe and the chief will judge the more detailed aspects of the project and presentation. Please keep in mind that the formal aspects of English (such as grammar, structure, etc) are not the only things being assessed. For example,it is noted in the writing section that creativity is also expected from the students; this is used to show that a feel for the English language has been obtained. Some examples of creativity would be developing a role play situation, using cut-outs to make a collage or doing a power point presentation perhaps. Gaining new vocabulary through this assignment is important to the students' growth as writers and readers of English and should be displayed throughout the projects. The presentation of ideas should be logical and orderly, and the content used should be factual and pertinent to the topic at hand.

A vast amount of new words were used effectively to illustrate the theme.

Content
Presentation of Ideas Ideas were not logically displayed and lacked pertinence to the subject matter. Few ideas were beneficial to the content and they lacked any order.
