1. My Own Culture Project
Copy the slideshow & fill in your own information with the same headings (don’t include the prompts). Make additional slides as needed with the same headings.
Self-reflect on (or create) one’s own culture, heritage and traditions.
The information shared can be actual or it can be what you want your life and family to be like (needs to be realistic).
Create a presentation to share all of the required information & at least one relevant illustration per slide.
Oral presentation will highlight only the most important and interesting information (not all the information written). It should be well-prepared, neatly organized and not read.

2. Further requirements
5-6 or more sentences per slide that do a good job of covering the topic of the slide.
Not all questions on each topic have to be answered, but the topic needs to be fully addressed. Some questions can be skipped if the topic is fully addressed.
Students will present at least 2-3 facts from each slide.
