P2+Friday+Night+Lights+Background+Terms

Directions: As preparation for reading the novel Friday Night Lights by HG Bissinger, you will be researching any 2 of the important terms from the novel for a clearer understanding of Friday Night Lights. To demonstrate your research, you will be creating a wiki- space for your group that will be due by Monday, August 24th (In class).

You may work alone or in groups of 2. However, if you choose to work alone, then you must complete all of what is expected for this project; not just bits of it. Each member is expected to contribute equally to the creation of the groups wiki-space. At the end of this project, you will each be grading each other separately for a grade. Your wiki-space will include the following information:

1. Pictures 2. Name of student that compiled the research 3. Term 4. Summary of term (may include history, biography, or definition) that focuses around a clear understanding of the term. Must use PIE and 8-12 sentences. 5. Any textual evidence or information gathered from any outside sources must be parenthetically cited. If the information is just copied and pasted, your entire group will receive a 0 for this project. 6. A Works Cited after each summary of term. No works cited will result in a 0 for your group for that term.

Example of Wiki- Space



Any work not completed in class on these dates must be completed outside of class on the student’s own time. This will be worth 50 points (This will take care of your RR #4 for this week).
