COW #3 and Oil Spill Project

This week we will be beginning our Deepwater Horizon research.  Each student will take on a role and will take a claim based on the perspective of that role.  Then you will have to find, collect, analyze and construct evidence to support your claim.  This project will be completed in class.  If you are focused in class,  I expect you to create a project that meets or exceeds the standards laid out in the rubric.   See below.

Oil Spill Project Overview and Rubric

This week I will be officially assessing your COWS for the first time.  Make sure to make revisions throughout the week and to communicate clearly and justify your reasoning.  Show me all of your thoughts and work.  Do not ASSUME that I know what you are thinking!

  1. My claim is that thousands of animals and organisms are dying every day because of the oil spill. I know this because over 400 species are being mortally threatend and animals are breathing in dispersants and oil leading to death or disability.
