Using Exemplars
On April 15, 2014, the grade 2s walked around with a grade 6 leader, and they looked at different examples of final projects. As they looked at the writing, the content, the pictures, and the overall display, students wrote down what they liked and didn't like about each one. They can use these sheets to help them as they create their own project!
