- Your project is to make a special set of cards about those who represent Native American Heritage.
- DUE Thursday/Friday, November 29/30, by start of your class period
- You MUST make a minimum of 8 cards
- Front: The person's name and picture
- Extra information or design features is great!
- A card number (you number them)
- Back: Biographical and other information of the person must be on the back
- Front: The person's name and picture
- Get creative with this project, and have fun with it, but keep in mind the amount of effort you think I'd be happy with.
- For the Hispanic Heritage Month Cards, I was VERY DISAPPOINTED with the effort of most students. DO BETTER.
- Think these people are superheroes? Give them superhero names, costumes, etc! Draw fun caricatures! Get creative!
- You can make the cards in one of three ways...
- A. Design the cards by hand, with drawings and neat handwriting.
- B. Design the cards by hand, but with computer printed pictures and/or words.
- C. Design the cards on a computer or smartphone and print them...BUT don't get lazy and think technology will simply help you do it more quickly. There are tons of photo-editing apps that could help you make this project turn out AWESOME, but I do expect awesomeness.
- You MAY receive extra credit if you go above and beyond and I am super-impressed with your efforts.
Lastly, your eight (or more) cards must be worth 20 "Dumont Dollars" (or more).
Use the lists below to determine the value of each card. It would be wise to choose your eight (or more) people before you get started. You CANNOT do five $4 cards and think you're done. You must do 8+ total, no matter what.
