DIRECTIONS (1 of 3)
DIRECTIONS:
Using one of the two programs above you will create a “time line” of all the units we’ve covered so far this year. Even if you just started last week, this assignment was created so that anyone, regardless of length of time attending Agora, can complete it. Slide4
DIRECTIONS (2 of 3)
You will create a Power Point/Impress presentation consisting of 8 slides. Each slide will contain 3 bullet points and a picture of a topic of your choosing from each Unit we’ve covered this year (minus Unit 5 as it was our writing unit). I have created a demo for you. Please use it as a guide to help you along the way. I am leaving it up to you to decide which topics you want to use.
*DO NOT COPY THE EXAMPLES I HAVE MADE. Slide5
