Before+Beginning+Your+Project

A. Before Beginning Your Project:

1. There are several decisions you need to make before beginning your project:

a. What skills are you going to focus on? b. What content would you like to work on (e.g. science topic, historical event, book, writing, tell a story, explain a process, math topic, artist, musician, athlete, etc)? c. What digital tools would you like to learn about or work with? d. What type of product would you like to create? e. How long do you want this project to take? f. Do you want to work with a partner? g. What website(s) do you want to use? Are they blocked by the district? If so, talk to Mrs. Duarte about getting them unblocked. While it might be a possibility, it might not happen immediately. If that is the case, you will need to select a different website. h. Where are you going to publish your project?

2. When answering these questions, it is easiest to get down this information. I would suggest creating a GoogleDoc for each project. In this document, you can not only put the answers to the above questions, but you can create your "To Do" list. This list will be used to guide you through your project. It will help you keep track of your tasks from one day to the next.

3. Once you have answered all of the questions in number 1 and created your list in number 2, then you must complete the " Beginning of Project Google Form ."

4. Finally, create a new event in Google Calendar for the completion date for your project. Share that event with Mrs. Duarte by inviting her to it. Please make sure you use the description field to explain what your project topic is.
