Potential workers building dams
An animal
You are FOR or AGAINST hydroelectricity and you are presenting your (an involved or impacted person or group) point of view towards an audience. DECIDE THIS FIRST!!
The project, to be done mostly in class, can be found on mrbirchggs.weebly.com

2. You and your group gather note-keeping boxes from the pages you have been assigned. Use information from your NKBs, and from those of classmates with different information, that work for the message you wish to share. You may gather **3** other facts from other sources if you wish. You MUST cite these sources! Use advertising strategies to try to influence your audience (see class list). Put everything together in a visual presentation that has everything working well together. You want to create a convincing piece. ** These should not include actual note-keeping boxes.** Do a rough plan first!
