Using fake Facebook pages with your classes

2. What are Fake Facebook pages?
Students can create a Fake Facebook page as a project in many different types of classes:
English - Character (fictional/non-fictional), Author.
History - historical figure/group.
Geography - Country page/profile.
Science - create a page for a certain type of rock.
Math - formulas, theorems.
Foreign Language - country, author, historical figure, featured verb, fictional character.

3. Who can do this? ANYONE … and that means YOU!
However, this idea may appeal more to teachers in MS or HS because their students are on Facebook.
