I am proud of this project because the school paper adviser (who I invited as judge) noticed the writing potential of one of my students and personally tapped her to produce an article for the paper.

As such, I asked the students to produce a newscast about the highlights and life changing events during the different dynasties of China.

Asian history will never be Asian history without talking about the dynasties of China and the mandate of heaven that legitimized the rule of a leader or otherwise. This is poster-making under the theme traces of culture where the students must show how culture evolved from the paleolithic era to the age of metal. Aside from the presentation skill and preparedness, a fellow teacher and myself also checked if the proposal is highly doable (logistics, meeting the objective set) given the conditions I set (booths will be at the fifth floor school gym from 8 AM to 3 PM etc).Д«AKAS ( Trace 2nd quarter). Since it is only a booth proposal, the only thing I am requiring them to prepare is a Keynote presentation that contains the booth design (some drew this in a cartolina which is fine), objective (showcase local food? interactive tour of the local community?), the elements in the booth (food? product? traditional game?) and staffing (yup, even this). Hazara, Tibetan, Kazakh, Hmong) who would showcase their local culture and customs to the school. As such, my project for this lesson is a booth proposal (a la Department of Tourism roadshow) wherein my 7th graders are exchange students from various Asian ethnic groups (e.g. Yes, believe it or not, the curriculum teaches the different ethnolinguistic groups of Asia much to my ( insert slight sarcasm) amazement. Performance should only last for three to five minutes with simple choreography, props and costumes. One group did a short Taylor Swift medley much to my delight. Oh, how I love portmanteau words! As such, Kantasya is obviously вЂњsong (kanta) about Asia (Asya).вЂќ The students must pick a song (or songs) whose lyrics will be tailored to talk about Asia as a continent (e.g. I have mentioned the specs of the news article project here. For both third and fourth quarters, I have chosen pairs for each. For first quarter, this is done individually. For both seventh and eighth grades except for the last quarter, I have asked them to select a Social Studies related news article and write a reflection paper about it. I hope this list of Social Studies (Araling Panlipunan) projects/performance tasks that can help or add to your ever dynamic roster: This is my area for improvement especially for product-based projects - take photos of at least the best work/s (not a fan of taking photos of my students, btw). For this academic year, I did my best to think of tags that are in Filipino for an extra вЂњoommpphh.вЂќ Sadly though, I was not able to take a lot of photos for the projects.

Notice below that I give each performance task a title so there is a recall for my students and myself. Now, I have listed the performance tasks or projects I asked my students to accomplish for school year 2019-2020. Previously, I wrote some tips to consider in preparing for projects in Social Studies. Thinking of a performance task brings nothing but utter joy to me as this is an avenue for me to channel my creative juices. Featured image: Speech choir invite for ancient Greece performance task.
