EARTH DAY PRESENTATIONS!

Name: _______________________ Class: ___________ Date: __________

This year the Environmental Science Department is going to host an Earth Day celebration for the school community. We will invite science classes and families to come. Students will present their work (similar to a science fair) as well as to do some creative presentations. Your project and presentation will be worth 20% of your 3^rd term grade. You can work as an individual or as part of a group. Awards will be given for the best projects. Here are some examples of what you might do as an individual or as part of a group.

· Make a science fair poster about your experiment and talk about it.

· Make a digital slide show on the computer.

· Make a digital poster about an environmental theme on the computer.

· Write a song, rap or other musical piece on an environmental topic.

· Create a short play about an environmental issue.

· Demonstrate a skill that you learned in class.

· Show your best class work from your agribusiness/Environmental Science class and explain what you learned.

Here is a checklist that you should use to make sure you do every part of this project. It will also serve as a way to grade your work. For each item on the checklist the teacher will give you a 4 for outstanding work, 3 for good work, 2 for needs improvement, 1 for poor/failing and 0 if you didn’t complete the item at all.
