Today, just read it over and pick a city in NYS!!
Here is a sample finished product by Madison Flemming! (She used Microsoft Publisher to do this) https://filecabinet4.eschoolview.com/D92DFCD2-159B-47BA-879D-B3934E0BC57B/EarthScienceEndofYearProject2.0.pdf
5/5: Make sure you picked a good city in NYS and for today, do some research on your city, pick a method of presentation like computerized brochure, poster, hand made brochure, or get creative. Now find the answers to step 1 and 2 on the instructions/ruberic.
