Class Agenda

PROJECT WORK DAY

1.  Turn in Contract
2.  Use laptop cart to make progress on:

• typing your research from your family interviews AND/OR...
• researching an immigrant group

3.  Use the following links as resources for your immigrant group research:

• Student Resources in Context.  Type in the search box "______________ Americans" OR "__________ Immigrants"...then look for appropriate references.  To access this site outside of the JDMS network, you may need to type in the pswd "empirelink"
• Wikipedia.  Type in the search box "____________ Americans"
• Optional:  
• Ancestry.com.  This is free for 14 days, but then costs money.  To register, you'll have to input an email address and a credit card.
• MyHeritage.com.  This has some services free, but it probably won't help you unless other family members built some info into this site.  Another drawback - Other services cost money.  Either way, you'll need an email account to register.  

4.  Plan out what your poster will look like...create a "blueprint"
