School: Port Allegany Elem School, Port Allegany, PA
Planned By: Kimberly Ball
Original Author: Kimberly Ball, Port Allegany
After reading about the Ancient Wonders students will do research on the various other wonders of the world. They will discuss the criteria of each wonder and choose one to do a power point presentation on. Then we will explore the New Natural Wonders of the world that will be voted on 11/11/2011 and they will research and create a persuasive commercial for their location. We will create dioramas and hold a school wide voting campaign. It is my hope to have their projects posted on the web site for the voting and onto Teachertube.
