What's happening: Dater 5th graders kicked off their TED Talk presentations this week with incredible success. This project offers an opportunity for our students to apply our Profile of a Ramsey Graduate Competencies.
🎤 Students choose a topic that is meaningful to them, research how to best convey their stance on the subject, and then blend their narrative writing abilities with their argumentation techniques to create a presentation for the audience.
🎤 Presenting in front of an audience takes guts! Way to go, 5th graders!
Why it matters: 5th grade Ted Talks are one way we ensure our students are showing growth in our Profile competencies, such as empathy, critical thinking, and collaboration.
The big picture: Ramsey students also complete a Profile Project in Grades 3, 8, and 12. These experiences, in the context of our Profile of a Ramsey Graduate, is another way we set ourselves apart as a district, and how our students have a uniquely Ramland career here.
