Warm-up:  Which underlined part contains the error?  Copy the sentence and explain the error.
Most  of the world’s sharks, living  in temperate and tropical regions, though the Greenland shark lives in the cold Arctic waters, and the huge basking shark is at home in the seas around Antarctica.   
  
Classwork:  finish independent book essays,  alone or with a partner create visual or musical interpretation of independent book (rubric below)

Art/Visual or Musical Performance Analysis -
-Analysis of text – Project moves beyond mere summary, proves the student’s mastery of the topic, and shows that student thoroughly understood and effectively analyzed the content of the text(s) in a creative way.  (C-grade: Project shows an understanding of the text (you get it), but it doesn’t move beyond the obvious or superficial.)
-Written Explanation – The writing explains how the art/song analyzes the text(s) completely, thoughtfully, and clearly.  This goes beyond the literal to show insight into the content of the text(s). (C-grade: Explanation explains the connection to text, but it is on a more literal level)
-Creativity and Presentation – The idea is professional, creative and well executed.

-Connection to text – The artwork connects to the text as a whole, not just a small part.  It represents what is important about the work.

Homework:  bring in any other supplies you might need to finish art/song
