Research Project: Spanish Flu/Covid-19  in Google Classroom

Research Project: Spanish Flu/Covid-19

Good morning class. I hope that you all had a relaxing weekend. I'm posting your assignment for this week, but it will be different that previous assignments. We are going to take advantage of the fact that we are living right now through an event unlike anything this nation has ever seen. It is an historical (yes an historical is the correct way to say it) moment for this nation and the world. We will be comparing this current Covid-19 pandemic to another, the Spanish Influenza Pandemic of 1918.

Task: I have attached 4 Google Docs
#1: Research Project Background Info & Description
#2: Research Project Questions (50 pts)
#3: Graphic Organizer (15 pts)
#4: Essay (35 pts)

I have also attached a variety of web resources, sites and video clips to assist. You and your experience during this pandemic will help you fill out the rest. You will have ONE WEEK (DUE NEXT MONDAY 4/6 BY 3:05 PM!) to complete this assignment.

I'm providing you with a suggested daily breakdown of work you can do.
*Today through Wednesday: (Research Project Questions)
*Thursday & Friday: (Graphic Organizer)
*Weekend Through Monday: (Essay) *If questions and organizer are properly developed than the essay should be very easy and quick to write. You can always submit it early.

Finally, this project will count as a TEST GRADE. Message me with questions if you have any. Good luck and God Bless.
