Introduction
It is the year
2010. You have been given a grant by your country of heritage to write
your family’s bibliography. The bibliography
will then be entered in a contest where the winner will go on a tour
of two countries of their choice.
Remember
to write it in the preterite or imperfect tense since this is information
from your past.
The
Task
Task-
The bibliography
can be in scrapbook form with descriptions in written form or can be
presented in powerpoint.
It must include
customs, the specific city or town your family was from, and foods
typical of that area. Be creative! Use pictures to enhance your project. You will
present it to the class once the project is complete. This will be used to enhance
your grades in your mainstream
classroom.
