Go to Box.com and sign up for a mini-research project. (Let me know if there are any problems with the sign up.)
Instructions: Choose a research topic of interest to you. You may work individually or with one other person. Sign up
for the topic. Please don't write over anyone's name.
You are to answer the reporter questions on your topic: who, what, where, when, why, how. Then you are to package the information into a 3 - 5 minute presentation for the class. Your presentation can be a poster, a powerpoint, a prezi, a
video, but must also include a handout for your classmates. (I will copy them if you get them to me soon enough.)
When you present, give me a copy of the handout and on the back of the handout, write two quiz questions covering material from your presentation (along with the answers). These can be multiple choice, fill in the blank, or short answer. No true or false. Dates TBA.
Go to the NY Public LIbrary link and find an essay to ready. I recommend you download this app if you have have an IPad. It is an amazing free app, but you can access all the essay material without the app. You will choose any of the essays, read it carefullly, and (1) write an annotated bibliography entry for the essay (2) provide a paragraph of commentary on the essay: how it relates to the text, other things it made you think of, etc.
