Illinois connections -- a packet of IL Lincoln sites was given to each student, I showed on the SMARTboard images of the Lincoln-Douglas Debate Site and the Guiteau House in my hometown, Freeport, IL. We read aloud together a news article about Watseka's connections to Lincoln. We then went to the lab to begin our Research time -- pick up a NEW & UPDATED 1/2-sheet of score criteria. Reminder -- expert credentials and evidence of time-on-task are the two most critical factors for the score. We will have the entire class period tomorrow; so, your research should reflect a day and a half of focused work to earn a favorable score.
