Group Folder
Your first assignment is to create a project participation rubric that may be used to rate your group members. You may use a rubric maker from the web or create a paper and pencil rubric.This should be on how well each member contribute to
the assignment and will need to fit both “in class” group work and projects. You may decide to do two (one for each) or one that fits both types of activities.
This rubric will need to be emailed to me by Saturday or if you choose the paper/pencil it may be turned in tonight. We will vote on the one that will be used next week.
Group Rubric
Students will learn how to:Plan lessonsAccommodate academic needsMake decisions based on AssessmentsChoose service delivery modelsUse related servicesWork effectively with families and other
professionals
