Important:  You must complete all sections of your RESEARCH GUIDE before you start your Presentation.  This includes filling in your notes for each section and writing down the URL of the site you used as a source.  You must use 2 different sources for your research!

 

You will work on these presentations in Google Slides.  Google Slides allows you to login and create Spreadsheets online in your web browser.  Students can work on their Presentations at the same time, even when they are sitting at different computers. It even allows you to leave comments to your partner to communicate and plan your project.
