Social Studies One-Pager 2.0 (aka magazine cover)
20 points
Estimated time to complete: 2 class periods
Your Task: Read the section assigned by your teacher. Then represent the information from this section on one side of a single blank white page. This final result should look clean and artistic like a magazine cover (colorful block letters, quality artwork, etc.) but first you must create a non-colored rough draft. The page can be laid out however you choose but must include ALL of the following:
1. The title of the section.
2. All key terms from the section along with a short definition.
3. The main people or groups of people involved in this section and what they did.
4. Two statements/sentences copied directly from the textbook that you found interesting.
5. Two questions you make up that are answered in this section.
6. At least 2 graphic representations (drawings, maps, graphs, symbols, cartoons, Venn diagrams, graphic organizers, etc.) These should tie in with the excerpts you choose.
7. A personal response/opinion - a comment, a connection, or an interpretation. (This reminds me of… I feel that… This makes me think…)
8. Your name in the lower right corner.
When you are finished, number the parts 1-8 of your paper using the numbers above. If you are missing any numbers you are not finished!
9. Create a final draft of your One-pager using ink and color. You must have both a rough and final draft.
