Teaching Clues
Once students have researched their soldier—using as many source as you wish to expose them to—they can summarize their learning with the “teaching clue.” This clue need not teach everything learned…just what they think is most important. It helps them learn how to list what they know, synthesize, edit and create creative writing products. Take a look at the Teaching Clues Lesson. Here is a worksheet to help students write “teaching clues.”
