Here is a description:
We are going to throw a Multi-Cultural Night May 9th. 8th grade will have a showcase in the gym, it is a Family History Project. It is a a tri-fold board that presents information about your family history and/or ethnic or cultural heritage. Most of the work will be done at home. The students’ boards will be on display during Multi-Cultural Night. We will invite families, teachers, and parishioners to attend.
Please invite other people important to you.
Multi-Cultural Night is May 9th. It is required each 8th grade student complete this project and be present that evening.
Required Elements on the Family History Project Tri-Fold and Presentation:
1) Map of how the student got here – we talked about it in class, it is a visual representation of how parents, grandparents..etc got to the Seattle area. So if you moved from New York to Seattle as a parent your student would show that on a map. If they moved (the student) it would show that on the map.
2) Family Culture – pictures of or artifacts that show how your family celebrates, how they come together, worship, etc. How does this connect to the life of the student?
3) Research on a country of heritage. – Each student will be required to have information on one of the countries they have a connection to.
There are 3 Project Components
1. Tri-Fold Board
3. Presentation
Additional Items and Props
You may display additional items during the Multi-Cultural Night such as food you prepared, important objects, or clothing that relates to your topic. Each item should include a separate caption. You will be assessed on the level of effort and quality.
Length: Your presentation will be approximately three (3) minutes long
