Fact or Fiction Task

Anyone can do it!









Hi Year 7's

One of the tasks you will be required to do this term during our unit on Ancient Greece is to complete a post each even week (week 2, 4, 6 and 8) that contains 4 pieces of information relating to the last fortnights work. These will be FACT or FICTION. A partner will then have the odd weeks (week 3, 5, 7 and 9) to determine which statements are fact and which are fiction and respond by replying to the post by leaving a comment for their partner. Everyone will post 4 pieces (even weeks) of information and everybody will respond (odd weeks).

Fact or Fiction (even weeks)
  • Your post title should be Your Name - Fact or Fiction wk2 (week number)
  • 4 different pieces of information required in one post by Friday at the end of each even week.
  • Length of information: 1 small paragraph for each piece of information.
  • Information must be about something discussed in class in the last fortnight.
  • A good post would be one that makes it hard for your partner to work out if the information you have given is fact or fiction.
Responding (odd weeks)
  • You must comment on your partners post by Thursday night in each odd week.
  • When you state if your partners work is fact or fiction you must acknowledge how you know this or your answer does not count. i.e I know it is a fact because it says on page 46 of the chapter Mr. Turra gave us on this topic.
  • Detail in your responses is important.
Don't forget to vote (you vote on the blog) on who you think posts the most interesting and hard to work out Fact or Fiction posts.

Mr. Turra
