Homework Alert!

The Prime Minister Project is due tomorrow!

Prime Minister Project

Each student has chosen a different Canadian Prime Minister to research.
Students have spent three periods completing their research using different texts and websites, so they should have all the information they need.
Now, students must think creatively to create a box (or bag or suitcase...) that might have belonged to their Prime Minister and fill it with at least five different items to represent their life and career.
For the presentation, students have to take on the persona of their Prime Minister! They should introduce themselves (with information such as their birthdate, when they were Prime Minister...) and they should explain their memory box and the importance of each item.
Students do have a page with all the details and the rubric.

This project is due Tuesday, May 12th.
