Heading into week two should not look as relaxing as Ollie's pose...(photo credit Bent)

By the end of week two you will need to have a basic idea, with possible appointments set, of what you would like to do for a project and research paper.  This does not mean that you need to have the whole thing hammered out, but you will need to be able to show effective progress.  This will look like:

1. A simple plan born of your original idea-written out (see sheet for this week on google classroom).

• In a sentence or two, put your project plan here, so we can all see it and be excited for you.

2. A book that you will be reading connected in some way to your project.

• Show me a picture of your book, and tell me why you decided to read it

3. An idea for a research paper that connects to the project and the book you are reading.  For example if you are interested in landscaping, you might have a plan to do some landscaping, and you have decided to read a book about a famous landscaper.....your research project could be about how the history of professional landscaping or how flowers and plants improve people's moods

• What is your idea? Tell us, and share a picture that connects to your research

4. How are you feeling week two? AND....

• As you have already discovered, there is time on your own in this class.  How are you going to commit to "time used wisely" here?  Explain
