The Winter Olympics will be held in Russia beginning February 6 th. To help you get ready to cheer on our Olympians, you are going to conduct some research into the various sporting contests that will take place, as well as a few of the Canadian athletes that are considered medal hopefuls.

All of your research, and any hand drawn images you create, will be collected into a digital picture book using the iPad app, Book Creator. In the end, you will export your book to iBooks for sharing with your classmates.

Chapter 1 should be 1 to 3 pages and introduce some of the basic and general information about the 2014 Sochi Olympic Winter games. If you are stuck, think about the 5Ws. 3. The illustrations for Chapter 2 must be drawn digitally, but the illustrations for the other chapters may be photographs taken only from: a. or b. c When you think you are done, be sure to proofread your picture book. Make sure all your titles have capitals, and that each sentence is a complete thought and punctuated correctly. You are welcome to peer edit each others work or have an adult look at it.

Projects should be exported as a PDF to , and sent to my Evernote account as a.PDF.
