Horizons Showcase (for English II H students)

This year, our Horizons Showcase will be on April 3, 2014.

It's always a good idea to start thinking about possible project ideas early in the year. This is an excellent opportunity to work alone or with a group to investigate a subject/topic of your choice. This is not required, but like I said, it's a wonderful opportunity. It looks great on college resumes and allows you to do a self-directed project in an area of personal interest for you.

You can do a Showcase project in any H-designated class.

"Mrs. Wise, what kind of project could I do?"

The sky's the limit. I can help you with any project related to English, language, books, or literacy.

A few thoughts:
- You can investigate a topic (genre, author, literary movement, etc) and present your research.
- You can conduct an experiment and present your findings.
- You could produce an original piece of literature/art and present it. A collection of poetry, a novel, a short story? What about a photographic essay? A short film?

These are just a few things I thought of off the top of my head. Please come see me if you want to participate.
