Our benchmark was the “History Of Science”. My classmates and me were divided into pairs and each pair researched a scientist. We each had to make a fact sheet about the scientist. We were required to make a Power Point or Keynote presentation about the scientist. We also had to fill out an application.

For the benchmark, we were paired with a partner. My partner was Rashaun Williams who was in charge of doing the research and summarizing them. My part of the project was to organize a fact sheet and the Keynote presentation. Each of the groups was assigned a scientist to research about. My group had to research Hans Adolf Krebs.

For our geometry benchmark, my class was split into groups of two or three. We had to make a class presentation. In this project a partner and me had to create a -10minute lesson plan on a math topic given to us. We also had to create a math pamphlet on the topic. The topic that I had was Geometry in sports.

My group was Rashaun Williams, and myself. Our topic was sports and how they relate to Geometry. The sports we were given to teach about were baseball, track & field, and snowboarding. We decided for each of us to talk about one and we both talked about the last one. We had some media in our lesson such as a video on track & field and on snowboarding.
