media type="custom" key="7676167"

For our PLC today, you will work with a partner to create a product that you will embed on one of the pages on this wiki. You will embed your product based upon the content area that your project covers.

For the project, you may choose one of the following:

1. L.A. - book review or a summary

2. Math - addition of anything

3. Social Studies - a decade, any decade

4. Science - an invention or a scientist or a process (the water cycle, etc.)

5. P.E. - "how to..."

6. Art - an influential artist or an artistic style

7. Music - a musical period

Listed below are the websites that you may use to create your project. Each of these sites are free and you can embed the final project. For some of the sites, you will need to create an account. I have included that information below for each website.

<span style="color: #600660; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 160%;">When you have finished your project, you will need to embed it on the PLC page that includes your content area. In other words, if you have created a poster of the 1950's, you will need to add your embed code to the "PLC Social Studies" page. Below is a Jing Screencast on how to embed onto a wikispaces page.
