1. Get an article which talks about a recent news event in


science. It must be from the last 3 months or newer. Have
your article checked by me BEFORE you start writing.

words you will need to define. Use a dictionary (on line or
print) to define these words and write that out as part of the
project.

highlighted correctly, that will help.
4. Write a list of 3 facts that you learned from the article. These
should be in bullet form.

and a picture.
An 8th grade paragraph is 5-6 sentences long.
This MUST BE TYPED.
