Your Task / Process

Plan an activity for the class and carry it out. Your activity might take one of the following forms: an oral presentation, a powerpoint presentation, a film with an activity or a class activity which involves members of the class. You are to provide what your group determines is the most crucial information each student should know about your topic. Create a page of notes for the students with a concise overview of the chapter. Each group is to select at least one reading from the topic from your various sources. A copy of the notes and reading are to be submitted prior to the presentation allowing enough time for them to be copied so your group will be able to hand them to classmates. Each group is to hand in a brief description of their activity and a works cited page according to MLA style as they are ready to present.There will be two library days to gather information.
