More about Left Side Activities Students have free range to design each left side as they choose. Each right side page must have an accompanying left side application activity. There are some guidelines to keep in mind when creating a left side application activity:

Student Generated 1. A left side activity is usually designed and created by the student. It is usually NOT assigned specifically by the teacher.

“I want to do the same thing” 2. In a given unit of study, students cannot repeat more than two kinds of left side application activities. This means that there cannot be, for example, more than two different left side Venn Diagrams or two processed Internet articles or two illustrated pictures used for left sides in that particular unit.

CER On page 7 glue the notes for writing a CER. We will review this before your first assignment. On page 8 glue the example of a CER. On page 9 glue the rubric which explains how I will grade your CER.
