Block Day Agenda

Today we are continuing to work on our multimedia presentations. We will be presenting on Monday and Tuesday of next week. A copy of the directions are posted below.
Students will form groups of 3-4 and present their People of the Year in one multimedia format. Groups should come up with a theme under which all of their people can be categorized (ex. Athletes, Event (Sandy Hook), Inspirational, Motivational, Record Breakers, World Leaders). The theme should be listed in the introduction of the presentation.

Presentation should be 5-7 minutes in length, and groups are free to use any multimedia program they choose (iMovie, Prezi, Animoto, Google Presentations). Groups should cover each of their people of the year, using both videos (clips should be around 30 seconds) and pictures, and how their people of the year fit into the group’s theme. While students are allowed to speak orally during the presentation, most of the information should be contained within the presentation. (The presentation should be able to “stand on its own.”)

For each Person of the Year, groups must cover (in bullet points):

1.             Biography of the Person
2.             What they did in 2012
3.             Why you believe this person is so important
