HARLEM RENAISSANCE POETS ASSIGNMENT
The assignment asks you to create either a Brochure or an Author Bookmark. Use today’s class in the media center to work on your product. This will be due next Thursday, December 19th. Come and see some of the ideas from the past for either the bookmark or brochure. If you are completing the brochure it MUST be completed on Microsoft Publisher or another helpful tool for creating a brochure. If you plan on creating a BookMark, it MUST be colorful and creative. Look at the examples that I have for you to preview!!!!
Here is a list of some useful websites that you can use for the project:
You will have to Google for Websites for these Poets because many of the links are NOT working. You may also want to Google for Harlem Renaissance Poets and explore some others that are not on this list.
