TODAY ... 

We will work in assigned groups on a webquest researching the background of William Shakespeare and of the Renaissance Period.

Each group will be reponsible for evaluating their information and creating 3 powerpoint slides for their section of the webquest.  We will work cooperatively on the same Powerpoint (that I have already shared with you) to create a comprehensive document the entire class can access and refer to.

Time permitting, each group will briefly present the information and their slides (although this will probably be something that we have to do tomorrow).

You will be evaluated on your group's slides, the quality and presentation of the information.  You will also be peer graded for your contributions by your fellow group members.
