Cleveland Rocks Research Article (English 11)


The first research project of the year for English 11 students will be promoting a hidden treasure of our closest major city, Cleveland. With all the current negativity surrounding us from the media and athletes, this project is meant to show our teens that Cleveland is a city in which they can be proud to live. The project will allow students to become a journalist and explore various research types including an actual visit to the research topic. They will take pictures of the topic and if possible, attend an event where they can become a primary source. The results will include an article about the topic which will be "published" on their blog spot and a presentation to the class.
