Step 1 Think of what topic you want to do the project on
Step 2 Find information on your topic and record where the information came from and what you found
Step 3 Modify your topic to reflect the facts you were able to find (For example, my topic may have started out as being about Athens but after my research I may slightly alter my topic to be about the Parthenon, the famous building that looks down upon Athens.)
Step 4 Break your topic into logical categories. For example, my project about the Parthenon may have categories such as 1. How it was built 2. Why it was built 3. Famous events through history that occurred at the building, including the present day robbery by the British Museum (though the British Museum has another point of view).

The project should have at least 20 facts and be done on your own.
Step 1-Choose a Topic
Step 2-Do some research
Step 3-Blog your SPECIFIC project below. Only 1 project on one topic
Step 4-Record your facts, at least 20 facts, and SOURCES. You must do the heavy lifting and study your facts and understand what you have put down. The teacher provided links at the top of the page are a good source for facts.
Step 5-Organize your facts into categories around one Topic. (an example: Topic-Athens, Categories-Location and size, Role in Ancient Greece, Contributions like democracy and philosophy.) Some facts probably won't fit into your categories, so be prepared to throw some facts out at this point.
Step 5-Present your information onto kidblog in a slideshow. The presentation should include your categories, graphics, and SOURCES.
We will come up with a rubric in class
Check List
-Your 20 facts (the minimum, not the maximum)
-Facts organized into categories (about 3 categories?)
-Your Sources
-Your Presentation, include pictures!
