Mrs. Kurtz's Seventh Grade Legacy Project...A success!

The seventh grade just finished a two week Project Based Learning unit. This PBL focused on answering the question, what is a legacy? The students were assigned a president to become experts on. They researched the president, created a resume based on all of the information they gathered, and then came up with a legacy that defined their president. Based on their legacy, they created an award and decided who to present it to. The culminating project was creating a movenote presentation describing the person they were presenting the award to. Here is a sampling of some of the movenote presentations:
