Controversial Project

Tonight I met with my group in the Computer lab at school. We were finally able to come up a brief outline of how we want to put our power point together for our topic. After we decided on an outline we began to look deeper for related articles. Our topic is controversial religious issues in school libraries. We are planning to talk about the history of religious book banning, misrepresenations in religious books, bias views in religious books, and incorrect information in religious books. These three main areas are reasons why religious books get censored. Some examples that we'll use will come from "The Da Vinci Code", "The Golden Compass", "Big Mama Makes the World", and "Hey God, It's Me Magaret". We are going to break up the power point into different sections that we will each take turns talking about for the presentation. We also decided to make a loud statement with wearing matching T-shirts! It's going to look good! We found some video clips on You Tube that will work well in the slide show.
I was really beginning to worry about this project, b/c we all seemed a little confused...but we really got the ball rolling tonight!! And we were able to put together a few slides!!
