Final Part 1:                        

Interdisciplinary Unit Experience

   I'm a freshman so I didn't really know what to expect when the teachers talked about the Interdisciplinary Unit, it made me a little nervous actually. During English class we all sat down and were paired up with random teammembers chosen by the teacher and each group was presented with a topic about Health and fitness. We didn't get to choose the topic and that was a little of a disadvantage. I disliked my topic at first. It was, "Should Students be mandated to join an athletic sport?" I'm not a fan of working out or sports in that matter, so I wasn't thrilled about the topic.
   My teammates and I wanted a new topic but the teacher didn't allow us to choose one for oursleves. My teammates, Alan, Karen, Esmeralda, Luis, and Kevin were all assigned a specific part of the assignment. I was in charge of drawing the audience in with a introduction. I was in charge of creating the claim which was "If students are mandated to join a sport it can help them overcome many physical or emotional issues and can even benefit our overall society. 

We agreed that students SHOULD be mandated to participate in an athletic sport, And we all found facts to back it up, 

  After we were done with our 7 paged essay we got the main points and converted it into a powerpoint including pictures and sources, we studied our lines and practiced what we were going to say in our Biomedic class. After we gained up confidence we were ready. We arrived after school, dressed nicely and presentable and ready to present our powerpoint and point of view to the professionals but one of our teammates wasn't there. We panicked But we took a deep breath and agreed that Alan was going to summarize her part. We stood infront of the pannel and said our part, my hands got sweaty but I managed to say my part without reading it off of my flashcard. We answered both of the professional's questions and everything went smoothlty.
