Our final project is an ABC book. This will be graded! You will create a PowerPoint about Earth Science. You will write 1 Earth Science word for each letter of the alphabet. Each word must have at least 1 sentence (in your own words) and a picture.
For example:
A: Asteroid
An asteroid is a small, rocky body that orbits the sun.
A: Asteroid
An asteroid is a small, rocky body that orbits the sun.
Each letter must be related to something we learned this year in Earth Science.
YOU MAY NOT COPY & PASTE SENTENCES. The sentences must be in your own words. Copying sentences will result in 0 points for that letter.
Grading:
Word is related to Earth Science: 1 point
Sentence is accurate: 1 point
Picture is given & representents the word: 1 point
Total: 78 points
