At the end of this station, reflect on the objectives you just worked to complete. On your paper you need to write whether or not you met the objective AND how you know this. For example, "Yes I met this objective because I completed all five tabs for the article, summarized everything including the dig deeper, and I scored 88% on the activity!"

We will be reading about the Whiskey Rebellion in our small groups and completing a Say Mean Matter.
Be prepared to discuss the answer to that question, using the text evidence you collected in your Say/Mean/Matter chart for the last ten minutes of this station.
At the end of this station, reflect on the objective you just worked to complete. On your paper you need to write whether or not you met the objective AND how you know this. For example, "Yes, I met the objective because I was able to annotate and I am confident I answered at least 8 of the 9 questions correctly."
