Yes, I think you're right about last year -- I remembered that after I sent
the message. As for this year, students are supposed to do the performance
task the same year that they take module A, so if they're taking A, B and C
in the same year, I guess they are supposed to do both a performance task
and a project, though that does seem like a bit much. We're sending our 3
pointers to module A in 10th grade (we did the same last year), so my
students only had to do a performance task and I assume that is supposed to
be part of their magen, as I haven't heard otherwise.

Hi Bari,
My understanding was that last year all projects were put on hold, and
that performance tasks were part of that. Or let me put it another way. I
don't remember hearing anywhere that teachers were expected to do
performance tasks after the Ministry gave in to the Irgun's demands. Yes,
this year we were obviously expected to do it. But in 11th grade doing
modules A-C, were we actually expected to manage both a project and a
performance task. I just assumed (uh, oh, big mistake) that from this year,
the Module A nce task for a class doing 3 points in 11th, then Modules D and
E in 12th, would be done in 10th, and a project in 11th. I don't quite see
how the Ministry could expect us to do both a performance task and a
project, AND 4 book reports (assuming the students don't have from last
year) AND three short stories AND Bagrut practice etc. all in one year. In
short, I did a project this year, no performance task, and am giving a magen
mark according to the 80-20 division for all three modules.
Any comments, anyone?
All the best,
Rivka

I can't remember why, but I'm pretty sure we were told that they did
have to
do performance tasks this year. They had to do them last year, as well,
by
the way.
