Famous People

1) Oral Presentation
Your homework is to prepare a 4m oral presentation about an alternative belief, relegion, secret society, etc.
If you've not started with the research yet, please do not choose a topic we've seen before. I.e. Feng Shui, Numerology, The Illuminati, Buddhism, Yoga, Telepathy, Chakras, Kung Fu, Krav Maga, etc.

Remember, we won't promote alternative beliefs, so limit your content to the facts.

The Oral Presentation should include:
Key terms: you'll introduce your content by explaining the meaning of 6 to 10 relevant terms
Introduction
Body
Conclusion


2) We also hold our Can Recycling Campaign. Please, join our efforts with empty and clean aluminum cans.


3) Book Report
125 pages at least, no books inspiring movies!
This is an essay (with thesis statement) not a summary of your book.
Due date: May 14th
