Together We will do your World Book Encyclopedia bibliography together as a group on the board. You will work on your biography title page of your 921 book for your bibliography. I will check all of these bibliographies.

Examples of Keynotes These examples of Keynotes made into iMovies:

Needs more Proofreading Needed to fix bibliography.

Hurried Through This project was done by a boy who was determined but took a very long time to get this much done. His bibliography was on paper but he ran out of time.

ESL Student Needed more time. Got the titles into the presentation. Did her caveman notes but then didn’t have time to complete the project.

Worked Hard Another one: She worked hard on her project and answered the “I wonder” section.

Finished? This boy had problems focusing and never finished products. With this project he worked hard with what he thought was important. Notice the font colors, misspelled words and information.
