Mystery minute

Hi. We are finishing off the Book in the Boxes...last week.

Tomorrow is a Career Day (all morning we will visit experts). I'm hosting Green Careers :D

Our writing/reading/media assignment for the week includes:

Mystery minute

Design a one-page flyer that shares a mystery that you would like to uncover.

You will use: Microsoft Publisher.
The page will consist of the following six (6) elements constructed in however you would like to use space on the page.

- title (Topic)
- Your question (What is the mystery you would like to solve?)
Try to give some answers to the question on the rest of the page
-- one photo with caption
-- one graphic (map? diagram? chart?) with caption
-- A list of resources (suggested links) three minimum
-- Five facts

The purpose is for the reader to see what the mystery is and get some answers "in a minute" just by reading your page.

Criteria include five categories (levels 1-4) x 5 / 20 marks
thorough and creative (4), clear (3), somewhat clear (2), unclear (1)
-- use of resources
-- spelling /grammar
-- use of space / technology
-- overall design
-- mystery question and answers

Get one peer to read over your work, provide suggestions and then hand in your finished product.

Due: Friday

Math - continue with probability (using models, real life examples (weather, sports and probabilities)
