Chart of Transition Signals (connectors)

This is the chart of transition signals I told you about. It has most of them on just one page. When you study with it, consider not only the function, but also their names (subordinators, coordinators, etc). It's possible that the chart will lose the horizontal format, and become vertical upon downloading, so make the changes you consider necessary once the file is in your computers.

Project Basic 9 Sabatino

English Version

Dear students

This is the project. Work together as a group, divide the work in sections and each member will take a section. EVERYBODY SHOULD PARTICIPATE EQUALLY IN THE WORK. Tell me about the mystery you have chosen through the chat box. The first group to choose a particular mystery will get it.

Ss work in groups to obtain information to prepare a powerpoint presentation on an unsolved or famous mystery. Ss need to present concrete points or data about the mystery like evidence, statements by witnesses, etc. Also, Ss need to present theories the investigators developed (speculation or possible explanations). Finally, Ss need to present personal conclusions from the members of the group. The Powerpoint presentations should contain visuals and texts. On presentation day, Ss will take turns explaining the different aspects of their mystery.

Thanks
