This week we read together and analyzed the essay "Of Studies" by Sir Francis Bacon. Bacon wrote several essays that touch upon different aspects of life. Each of you received an essay that you are working on either by yourself or with a partner regarding life.
When you present your essays you will be responsible for the following parts:
1. A Summary / Break down of the major points of your essay -- You will be sharing these points with the class like I did when we read the essay together.
2. Visual -- Either using Powerpoint or a poster you will include the title of your essay with images related to your topic. (If you draw something than you can focus on one main idea of your essay. If you are printing out your images or cutting them out from other sources you need 3-5 images. You can have more than 5 as well.)
3. I will be asking you at the end of your presentation what is the best advice you ever received from someone or learned from somewhere. Be prepared to answer this question. If you want to include your answer with your summary you can so you have it ready to go.
Periods 1,3 will be presenting on Tuesday, December 10th
Periods 2,6 will be presenting on Wednesday, December 11th
