Honors 9- Proposals for the multi-genre project are due. All classes will work in the lab or the library on their projects.


English 10- Today students worked on creating their proposals for their multi-genre unit. It is due on Monday. Here are the directions if you need them:


10th Grade Proposal for Multi-genre project Due Monday May 4, 2015
The purpose of this proposal is to explain and defend the topic you are choosing for your multi-genre project. In a few paragraphs, you will need to clearly explain what your topic is and why you have chosen it. You also need to include how you plan to complete your research. Consider what the possible research pieces you will be using? What kind of research will you need to do to complete the assignment? In addition, you will need to include two of the genres you plan to use. These don’t have to be final, but they can give me some insight into how to help direct you. I challenge you to NOT just choose the genres that you think will be easiest. If you choose a birth certificate because it seems easy, you are missing the point of the assignment. Defend your genres as to WHY they support the research behind your topic. Remember, this is the culminating assignment for the class.  Show me what you have learned as a writer. Take some risks and do your best!
