1 Important Person Report The Grade: A complete report will be worth 100 total points. 20 points- Report Packet (Social Studies) 40 points- Written Summary (Writing /Language Arts) 30 points- Visual Aid (Comprehension/Reading) 10 points- Oral Presentation/Listening while others present (Citizenship) DIRECTIONS FOR THE WRITTEN SUMMARY 1. A heading, which will include your name, the due date of the project, and the name of your president, should be on the top of your paper somewhere. A heading should look like one of the following examples: Student Name Example #1 March 2, 2012 Rosa Parks Example #2 Rosa Parks By: Student Name March 2, The written summary MUST be at least 3 paragraphs. Paragraph one Remember to indent. Write at least 5 sentences. Introduce your important person. Where is he/she from? When was he/she born? Is he/she married? Did he/she have children or pets? Tell what made him/her legendary. Paragraph two Remember to indent. Write at least 5 sentences. Tell us about where this person came from. Tell us about where this person lived. As a child, was this person rich or poor? Did they have a big family or were they an orphan, or only child? Talk about the events that led them to become legendary. Paragraph three- Remember to indent. Write at least 5 sentences. Which qualities did this person have that helped to make him/her important, successful or special? Describe the most interesting or unusual thing you found during your research. Tell us where this person was educated and how long they attended school. Describe a problem that this person had to overcome and how they were able to solve the problem. Tell us what you think of this person. Why do you think this? 3. Don t forget to write about facts. Be sure to include exact dates. Be sure to include the proper names of the people and things related to the president. Have fun with this project. Be creative and express your opinions. 4. Use the Editing and Revising Checklist below to help you check your work. Editing & Revising Checklist I used at least 5 sentences in each paragraph. I used correct punctuation. I used correct capitalization I used complete sentences. I remembered to indent when I started a new paragraph. I read my summary out loud to myself AND to a friend or family member.
2 DIRECTIONS FOR THE VISUAL AID Your visual aid can be in the form of a poster board, shoe box diorama, hanger diorama, cereal box diorama, etc. Students can use whatever creative method they wish to depict report subject, as long as they are well thought out, neatly organized and presented. The student will have to give an oral presentation and explain their visual aid to the class. They must be able to explain what their project represents and how it relates to the report subject. Some ideas for the visual aid: DRESS UP LIKE YOUR PERSON- Dress up like your person. Bring artifacts (items that the person would have had or used- like a baseball or glove for Babe Ruth) to help your costume come to life! This will also help you to prepare for the Wax Museum project. DESIGN A BOOK JACKET FOR THE BIOGRAPHY OF YOUR IMPORTANT PERSON - Be sure to include the title of the book, the author, and a synopsis/summary of the important information about your person. On the inside of the jacket tell some information about the person(most book jackets tell something). CONSTRUCT a HANGER MOBILE- use images or pictures that depict important information about your person. FIND A SHOE BOX AND CONSTRUCT A DIORAMA -You may paint your background, and then make paper objects to complete your scene. Objects can be made from many items. Write a description of the scene you have chosen so that others will be interested and want to learn more about your person. CHOOSE AN INTERESTING EVENT FROM THE PERSON S LIFE- You can use any art materials that you have, including tag board, canvas, construction paper, poster board, etc. It must be at least 12 by 18 in size, and it must be in color (crayon, colored pencil, watercolor, tempera, pastels, etc). It must also be complete, with details, not just a lot of sky! On a sheet of lined paper attached to the bottom of your drawing, describe in detail what is happening in the scene. ******************************************************************* Use the following questions to help you be a better speaker Did I look at my audience? Did I make eye contact? Is the volume of my voice loud enough/not too loud? Did I practice what I was going to say in front of the mirror or in front of my family? Did I take my time and speak CLEARLY and SLOWLY? Did I practice enough so I will not be nervous? Did I make note cards that are clear and easy for me to remember my speech? *******************************************************************
