In class this week we have been discussing and viewing Episode 1 of Dr. Jared Diamond’s & National Geographic’s Guns Germs and Steel TV series. Your project is to create a children’s book based on the story of Dr. Diamond in his quest to answer his friend Yali’s question. Refer to the project description handout for the requirements, a suggested outline, and a rubric for you to see how I will be grading your books.
Here are some links that you can use to help you create your children’s books.

The background reading for the video here.
Feel free to email me if you have any questions, or put your questions in the comments and I and your students can answer them there.
Have fun writing your books … I look forward to reading them.
