State Project

Welcome back! As we head into the last weeks of the school year, we are beginning to work on our final project. Students will be responsible for choosing a state in the U.S. and conducting research about their state in order to write an essay, create a Google Slideshow, and create a travel brochure. The project is due on Wednesday, May 18th. Students will be presenting their slideshows to the class.

Project details and rubric were sent home with students yesterday, but can also be viewed by clicking the link below.

State Report Information

A template for the brochure can also be found on our Google Classroom, which all students know how to access.

Please let me know if you have any questions!
