Meet the problem.

You have read the problem. Fill in a GRASPS worksheet in response to it. (Scribbling this with paper and pencil is fine. You will not turn this in.)

Questions
Notes
Goal
What is the GOAL of the assignment? What will you be learning as you work on it? You are "Paying attention to Place " in this problem. The learning goals for this skill are on the first resource page for it. In general, the goal is to notice places in a few chapters of Matthew.
Role
What is your ROLE in the problem? Who are you? What are you to do? Where do you work again?
Situation
What is the SITUATION in which you find yourself? Describe as much as you know. What, according to this problem, is in your "in box" today?
Product or Performance
What is the PRODUCT of your work to be? How will you know you are done with that little "in box" item? What do you have to produce?
Standards
What are the STANDARDS by which your work will be judged? Here is the rubric I use in my classes. As you meet the problem, try to relate these general standards to the specific Goal, Role, Situation and Product of this problem. By the way, when you do not work with others on the problem, the standards for collaboration will not be applied to your work.

What do you know? What do you need to know?

Make a list of what you know and what you need to know about Matthew 14:35-17:27.
