Your Mission

· Research your assigned theme and each of the four sub-themes provided. http://TeacherWeb.com/ME/HopeElementarySchool/6thGrade/links2.stm is the website to go to. Click on your name where you will be directed to several teacher-approved sites where you will take notes in your sub theme packet.

· As you research, choose two additional sub-themes- you choose one and your partner chooses the other.

· Use Inspiration to create a website on your theme. Each of your sub-themes should link to a different page, giving you seven pages in all.

· Each page should be informative, descriptive, creative, and interesting. A minimum of ten important facts should be included on each page to meet the standard.

· This project will be completed in school. Adequate time will be given for research, note taking, web site development and assessment, presentations, and completing other groups’ assessments. You and your partner will be presenting your website to the class in early June. A more specific timeline may be provided at a later time.

Assessment

· Develop a formal assessment for other students to complete as they visit your website. Include a sample answer sheet or create a rubric for scoring each assessment.

· Some ideas are worksheets, political cartoons, essays, timelines, poems, crossword puzzles (NO word searches), drawing diagrams, etc. Get CREATIVE when brainstorming your assessments and think about what YOU would want to do!

· You may choose to do one major formal assessment for your website, or smaller assessments for the sub themes. If you choose to do smaller assessments, each page should have a different type.

· You will be graded not only on your website but on the assessments you complete for other websites.
