Voting & Elections 2024 Collaborative Poster History Research Craft Activity

Description

• Review Time: Use the cube as a review activity to reinforce key concepts before an assessment or as a quick refresher.
• Small Groups: Assign small groups of students to work collaboratively on the cube, encouraging teamwork and discussion.
• Exemplary Task: Showcase exemplary work by displaying completed cubes in the classroom or hallway, highlighting students’ efforts.
• Buddy/Partner Work: Pair up students to complete the cube together, promoting peer learning and cooperation.
• Independently: Have students work independently on the cube as a self-paced activity, allowing them to take ownership of their learning.
• Homework: Assign the cube as a homework assignment to extend learning beyond the classroom walls.

• The Collaborative Research Poster is designed as a Print & GO file, making it easy to implement in your classroom.
• Students will need to cut and glue the pages to assemble their poster, getting hands-on with the material.
• Plan for approximately 60-90 minutes of class time to complete the poster, ensuring students have ample time to engage with the content. A lot of that time will also be used for research.
• Regular copy paper is all you need to create the poster, making it a cost-effective and accessible resource.
• Remember, each student will need all one poster (unless you decide to partner the student)s to successfully complete their own Collaborative Research Poster.
