7th: We are wrapping up our informative nonfiction unit by working on a group research project. Each group will research a holiday or custom from a culture outside of the U.S. They will write a formal, typed essay with a bibliography, give a 5 minute speech, make a power point or poster board visual aid, and prepare a traditional holiday dish from their country to share with the class. The project will begin on Monday, February 14th, and will be due on Wednesday, February 23rd.
