Talk about superstars!
BJSHS students in Monica Myers ELA class worked on a research project to conclude the school year. She was so proud of her student's accomplishments and wanted to share them. She explained that the research paper had to:
Narrow down a career field they were interested in and refine a focus.
Gather relevant information from multiple types of authoritative sources, using advanced searches effectively, and annotate sources.
Assess the strengths and limitations of each source in terms of the task, purpose, and audience.
Synthesize and integrate information into the text selectively to maintain the flow of ideas.
Avoid plagiarism and over-reliance on any one (6) sources and follow a standard MLA format for citation (including human interviews.)
and lastly, present the information, choosing from a variety of formats.
"These students absolutely had the best and most engaging presentations!" said Mrs. Myers. "It was a joy to see them be passionate about their learning and share it with their peers."
The students and their work include:
Junior Jeannie Napier researched clinical psychologists and demonstrated how to read ink blots
Sydney Sills researched Trauma Therapy and explained what participant drawings could mean to the class.
Alanna Galloway researched being a music producer and shared how popular artists arrange their songs.
Chevelle Redwine wants to practice Art Therapy for a career. According to Mrs. Myers, the students were completely engaged in Chevelle's activity!
We are proud of these Bruins and their accomplishments! Thank you to Mrs. Myers for sharing their hard work!
