Thursday 5/18

Today you will work together with your partner to devise an interesting way to tell the story of your topic. Approach it like the podcast people heading to your museum want to see engaging displays not to read textbooks!

The Goal: Complete your story by the end of the block. Your final draft needs to appear in the table on the workspace document.  Look below for the section you need to find:

The Story.  Museums often have audio recordings that tell “the story” of events.  In the space below, you and your partner need to tell the story of your event.  This recording will last 1.5 minutes-2 minutes (approximately a full typewritten page)  The main challenge here is to write the story so museum goers are interested.  This task shares many similarities to the writing of the podcast.  “The Story” needs to historically accurate but not sound like it’s being read from a textbook.

Write “The Story” here:


HW: Complete story if not done by the time you leave.
Bring IR books to class tomorrow.
