Final Activities

THE GLOUCESTER PROJECT FINAL CHALLENGE:

Come up with a name for your group that reflects the topic(s) about which the members have written. (For some groups this will be easy; for other groups you might need to use a bit of imagination.):

________________________________________

(title of group)

A/F-block you have until 8:50 to the following:

1.  Choose a short excerpt (a paragraph or a poem) from your multigenre paper to read aloud.

2. Create a catchy advertising slogan and design for your group that can fit on a bumper sticker. The bumper sticker should be somewhat like a title and somewhat like a thesis. It should be short, memorable, and convey the essence of your group’s attitude toward the topic(s). Have fun.

3. Create a tour of Gloucester related to your group’s topics. (Google maps might help.) Include a reasonably clear sketched map of the tour. Include at least five stops on the tour related to your group’s topics.

4. Write a list of ten things Gloucester should know about your group’s topic(s). Order the list from least important to most important. What is relevant? What is essential? What will help the city understand who we have been, who we are, and who we will be?

5. Make a schedule of events for a day celebrating your topic(s).

You must schedule an event related to your topic (a speaker, a demonstration, a game, music, etc.) for each of the following times. Be creative! Write a few sentences explaining the event.

Remember, money is no issue, so how could you really teach/show Gloucester about your topic?
