Walden Posters due
25 minutes. Study each poster. Read the entire written portion for each poster. No, that doesn't mean "skim." Examine the details of the picture. Then score it out of 50 points. 25 for the picture and 25 for the writing. I'll let you decide how to grade it. Make sure that your score is carefully considered, though. Judge like they do in the Olympics. That is, the best one in the class will receive 24/25--no one will receive a perfect score. In reality, I will probably give a number of the posters full points, but for our purposes today, no one gets a perfect score. After scoring all of them, come up to the dry erase board and vote for your three favorite posters.
Extra credit:
7 points for 1st place
5 points for 2nd
3 points for 3rd
3-7 points to Mr. Isom's choice of a great poster that didn't take 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.
