Pre-AP
In today's class, we finished our notes on folklore and fairytales, and began talking about the research paper, which is due on March 5th. Most of the information about the research paper can be found in the research packet, which can be downloaded by clicking here.
A few extra notes about the research paper that didn't make it into the packet:
1. Wikipedia cannot be used as a research source.
2. If students do not use in-text citations, there paper will receive an automatic zero.
3. The paper presentation is worth 50 points, not 150 as is stated in the packet.
4. The paper presentation should be 4-6 minutes long.
If you have any questions about the research paper, please email me.
Homework: Students should choose their research topic from the provided topics in the research packet, and they should begin preliminary research on that topic. We will spend Tuesday and Wednesday in the library researching as well.
