| Name: | Decade: | ||
| Theme: | Project Mode of Expression: |
I. State your Questions for Investigation:
1.
2.

II. What type(s) of final products will effectively illustrate your answers to each Question for Investigation in the project? Place the number of the appropriate Question above next to the products below that you feel apply, and state in 1-2 sentences why that product might fit with that question and interest your audience.
Important: Each person in the group will be responsible for at least two products that will be represented in the final project.
