World Mysteries Project

Welcome to our Final Project!

We are going to explore the topic of mysteries and reflect on it. You are going to speak about it and prepare a multimedia presentation about a mystery you are interested in. It must include text, image and sound.pyramids

Use the questions below as a guide. You can use PPT, Prezi (10 slides maximum) or Google docs for a digital poster and Windows Movie Maker if you decide to make a video, ten minutes long maximum.

If you make a visual presentation with any of the tools above, remember to add an interesting video.

Guiding questions:

What is the mystery about? Give the basic information.

Has it been solved? If not, what do you think about it?

Can you find it in popular culture? Are there films, songs, books, video games, comics, etc. based on it or related to it?

Is there a similar mystery in our country?

Why do people like mysteries? Why has Man usually been attracted to world mysteries for centuries?

Traditional children’s stories revisited

Welcome to our Project for this year!

We are going to make an e-book with your own versions of traditional children’s stories.

Choose one you like and make some changes to it. You can change the time, place, characters, you can introduce new elements as in the story we read called Little Red Rining Tone, remember? Grandma had a mobile phone and sent Little Red Riding Hood a text message with a shopping list for her. Quite modern, isn’t it?

Also, you can change part of the plot. Do you want to give the story a different ending?

Once all your stories are ready, you’ll present them to your classmates and finally, I’ll make the e-book and upload it here for you all.

Let’s start writing!
