Home Enjoyment project due 11/21/13

Social Studies/Writing Home Enjoyment Project

Your child brought home a Home Enjoyment project last Monday. The assignment was to write a biography on an important person from the Renaissance.  We wrote one as a class on Leonardo da Vinci the week prior to that, so they should understand how to do it without much support. They have all of the materials needed to complete the project. The expectation is that they selecet a person (a list of people was sent in the packet), complete the outline, write a rough draft including an introduction, 3 body paragraphs, and a concluding statement/paragraph, have someone edit and revise their rough draft, publish their writing by either typing it our writing it with nice handwriting, draw a picture representing their person for the cover, write at least 5 fun facts about them, and write the bibliography showing what resources they used.  This is due Thursday, November 21st.  Thank you for your support at home. I look forward to hearing all about the people they researched!
