Project

Last class we started the topic about Hobbies and Sports. So here goes the instructions for our mid project related to the topic!

Instructions for the project:
Day of the presentation: Oct.16th.
Imagine that you're a sports reporter. You have to choose an athlete to enter the International Sports Hall of Fame. You can choose one athlete to enter the Hall of Fame. Choose someone you admire. It can be from now or the past. Be ready to explain your choice and defend your point of view. Remember there'll be other "reporters" trying to convince the "judge" :)

Prepare a power point presentation with a SHORT biography about the person's career and why these facts made him/her suitable to be in the Hall of Fame.

NO EXCUSES PLEASE! (if you have to travel because of work, tell me in advance. If you get sick on the day, bring a doctor's note, otherwise you won't have the same grade as the others. And remember...you have two weeks, so don't let everything for the last minute!

Reading on the Net!
