Putting the Pieces Together

This is where you start putting your research and ideas together. In a sense, you are putting the puzzle pieces together to see the whole picture.

You should use your recording sheets and graphic organizers to help you synthesize your research.

Remember:

1. You will need to organize your information so that it can be put into a HyperStudio presentation.
2. Your group will be asked to present your multimedia presentation to the class.
3. Keep in mind your essential question: "How can people best try to overcome the forces of nature?"
4. The last slide of your presentation should address this question from your expert's point of view.
