Planner Homework: Facebook project due Thursday!

Today I will learn: I will demonstrate my knowledge of musical composers through the creation of a Facebook page.

Face Book Project 1. Objective: Using your class notes and any other additional research necessary, create a Facebook page featuring your composer. We will draw for composers in class. There will be an opportunity to use creative writing as well as narrative writing based on facts. This project is due: October 3rd. 2. You will be drawing for composers. You may not switch with anyone, you must keep the composer you drew.

Face book project 1. There is a PROFILE PAGE and a STATUS PAGE.

Profile Page Include ONE picture of your composer. Left- hand column complete: Composer Name Relationship status Birthday (don’t forget—month, day, and year) Include TWO pictures of friends that your composer would have had—place their name in the box below their picture.

Friend’s Comment—create a comment a friend of your composer would post on their page.
