Collaborative Leaming Plan:
*
In pairs, you will make a poster that provides information about your
Enlightenment character (Monday and Wednesday)
* With these posters we will make an "Enlightenment Museum" that will serve as
our note taking for these characters.
As a class we will take a "Gallery Walk"
through the museum and learn about each of these Enlightenment hinkers.
(Wednesday)
{' After becoming experts on one of the thinkers and learning an overview of the
other characters, we will have an Enlightenment Salon on Friday. A Salon is a
place where Enlightenment
thinkers would come together
to discuss
ideas and
socialize. You will come to the Salon as your character and discuss
their ideas in
our class Salon. There will be tea and cake for the attending and participating
thinkers. (Friday)
