After reading The Outsiders, your group creates a final project.  This project is worth 75 summative points.  (See scoring rubric).  Each project MUST contain a Work Cited page which shows where you got your ideas (including the novel, The Outsiders, every image, and any other resource you used to create your project).

You must choose ONLY one TYPE of project to complete.  Peruse the options.

Your project MUST make sense.  It must be in the same genre as the novel (for example, you cannot change it to a comedy or a science fiction genre).

You may borrow other people from other groups to play minor roles or to replace those who are gone from your group on the day your performance is scheduled.

Other than ideas taken from the novel, all presentations must be original and created by YOUR group and you must submit a Works Cited page.

You will PEER SCORE and I will also score the production.  No one is working on their production while groups are performing.  You do not talk,  shout out, or interrupt presentations while groups are performing (You will lose points on your own production).  You are to be a good audience member and it's part of ELA listening standards.  (See attached standards)
