English Project
English Project
Students will be responsible for researching, writing, and presenting a project in English Language Arts (ELA). Students will choose two (2) culturally diverse and/or culturally relevant texts to read and compare; texts must be two different mediums/genres (ie: novel excerpt and nonfiction article, poem, and speech, etc…). All texts must be approved by students’ advisors. After reading, students will write a paper answer to the following prompt:
What conclusions can you draw from your texts regarding the significance of cultural diversity in 21st century society?
Papers must be 2-5 pages and written in 12-point font, double-spaced. Students will present this paper and their findings to a panel. Their presentation may be accompanied by visual aids, including PowerPoint or Google Slides presentations. Students’ writing and presentations are expected to be at a “High Intermediate” level.
