Egyptian Freedom: Show ME What YOU Know



This project is going to give you freedom. In my opinion, too often teachers just tell you what to do. I am not going to do that. Instead, I am going to ASK you what you want to do. I want to give you, the student, the freedom and the opportunity to be creative. I often say that you are not elementary kids. I mean that, which also means I am not going to treat you like it. With that said, I believe you are old enough to have choices in school. I am going to give you the choice of what project you want to do. Why? Because everybody is good at something. Not everyone is good at writing papers, or giving speeches, or making videos or making power points. But, everybody is good at something and I want to bring out those talents. Your task is simple: Show me what you know about Ancient Egypt. How you do that is totally up to you. Just remember, you MUST thoroughly explain at least 3 of the 5 topics we have learned about in Social Studies. For whatever 3 topics you choose, you must tell me about everything. You can also include other pieces of information if you would like. You will have the opportunity to present these projects so produce something you can be proud of. This is your chance to show everybody your talents.

DUE: November 22nd, 2011. In Class
Points: 60 points (20 points for thoroughly explaining each topic)

    I might be doing a powerpoint if my computer will let me, I have aold computer and I usually cant find the powerpoint creator so mabey that, well if I cant find it I am going to go to the public library. If I cant do a powerpoint I am going to do a prezi because I like typing and I have a prezi account already. I have made a prezi before too it was about Joahnn Sebastion Bach and that was fun. So it is either going to be a powerpoint or a prezi!!!
