Senior Gift Project

5/7/2014

What is sustainable living?

Today, you will write a proposal for your Senior Gift project.

Project Proposal Template

Your project needs to:

• to be here for future generations
• be a source of pride
• solve a problem or make an improvement to the campus

You must decide if this will be a "Green" project. Before the end of class you will email a proposal. Your proposal needs to include an explanation for why you did or didn't GO GREEN.

email proposals to: tmegahan@dallasisd.org

The five best proposals will get five teams. The five teams will present on Monday, and the class will vote for the best. This will be the senior gift project for your class.

Good proposals include:

*pricing
*supplies or resources needed
*visual as well as clear description.

I will be taking grades on the fly. Presentation grades and time management grades will be averaged for your final ACP grade. If at any point it looks as though you are in danger of failing, I will take you off the project and make another assignment. Anyone taken off the project for any reason will complete a TEACHER MADE FINAL.
