We are starting a project on the presidents of the United States.

George Washington

This project will consist of a 3-page report along with creating a

cereal box for the president. The project will consist of work to be

John Adams
Thomas Jefferson

done at home as well as work to be done in class.

James Madison
James Monroe

There is a rubric on the reverse side of this paper explaining what will
need to be in the report and on the cereal box. The cereal box needs

John Quincy Adams

Andrew Jackson

to be decorated with pictures as well as information. The idea behind

this is similar to how Wheaties cereal boxes are designed with

Martin Van Buren

William Henry Harrison

professional athletes.

John Tyler
James K. Polk

The timeline for the project will be as follows:

o Feb. 4 choose president
o Feb. 16 first draft of president report due
o Feb. 23 2nd draft of president report due
o March 2 final draft of president report and cereal box due

Zachary Taylor
Millard Fillmore
