Envision

What to do:

What have you always wanted to learn? What interests you? What are your hobbies? favorites?

Envision your interests -- visualize them. Make lists. Ask questions. Answer them. Choose one to research. Own it: be committed.

Part 1: Propose


What do you want to explore?
Search a few ideas. List them.
Find a topic interesting to you. 
What question do you want answered? 
This is a THICK question: a what if, why, how, what happened type of question.
It's something that will require you to search and find, think and discover, review and consider.
Who else would be interested?
Consider a topic that others may be interested in so that you can share your information.
If a topic is interesting to you, who else will be interested? 
Is your topic important to others? How will your study help them?

Create a KWHW sheet to guide you. 

Part 2: Proposal


Now that you have a question, write a proposal for your project.

Answer these questions in a Google Doc named W_ Proposal Code Topic in your writing folder.

What's your main question?
What other questions support it?
What do you already know?
Why is this important to you?
With whom will you share?
What final project do you envision?
Share with your teacher for approval.
