Big Idea: Power

Essential Question: Can classifying ourselves give us power?

Objectives: I can…
...revise my work.
...analyze how populations are changing.
...chart how my life events have shaped where I am today.
...write a claim about my purpose in life.

Performance Task: Charting my Life
******************************
1) Warm Up: Five for You! (5 minutes)

1. Spend five minutes working on your P-E-A sentences from your ColorCode document.
2. Make sure you've shared your ColorCode document with me!

2) Math and Science Literacy Block: Population and Power (20 minutes)

1. Set up a note page for today.
2. Practice: 
1. Discuss: The structure of a population changes over time.
1. Population pyramids show how many people, broken down by sex, are in each age bracket.
2. How might this impact a society?
2. Sketch India's population over time, overlapping itself. Think about problems or benefits that might arise from the changing population structure.
3. Match the countries with the population pyramid shape you think they have.
1. Countries: Germany, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the United States
2. Pyramid Shape Options: Expanding, Stationary, Contracting
3. For each, explain why you matched it the way you did, infer one impact this structure will have, and state which age bracket you think will have the most power and why.

3) Lesson Plan: Charting my Life

1. Purpose: There are events that shape our lives in different ways. Think of that old saying, "What doesn't kill us makes us stronger." Today, we will look at the events that have gotten you to where you are today and how those events have shaped your future purpose.
2. Practice: (7 min) On your index card: Work with the people at your table. Describe the life of a made up person. Include good and bad events. Swap with another group. Chart this on a plus-minus chart like the one you used in English for A Long Walk to Water.
3. Personal Product: (10 min)

1. On one side of your paper, list major memorable moments in your life.
2. Set up a plus-minus chart for your life.
3. Add your life events to the chart like we did for the sample.
4. Mark where you are today.
4. Personal Prediction: 
1. Mark where you want to be in the future.
2. List what you will need to do to get there.
3. Journal it! Choose one event that has had a lot of impact on you and write about that moment and how that moment led you to where you are today. This needs to be at least half a page.
4. Write a point sentence describing your purpose in life and why that is your purpose. 
5. Take a picture of this and add it into you folder. Call it "Name-Charting my Life".

4) Success Workshop: SMART Success (20 minutes)

1. Write a SMART goal for what you hope to accomplish today. Consider:
1. Finalizing your "Color Code", "My Powers", and "Who I am" documents
2. Working on your work for Coach B
3. Revising your notes
4. Organizing your binder
5. Working on other homework
6. Making revisions

5) Exit Ticket: Find your SMART goal from Monday. Give yourself a 1-4 for missing your target (goal) or being a BOSS at meeting your goal.
