Process
Directions
Here is the process you will follow while on your webquest:
1. You and your classmates will be put into a group of three.
2. Once in your group, you will choose your favorite story in the unit that you will decide to summarize for the movie producer. You may choose Mesopotamia, Escape from Pompeii, or Silent Army.
3. After choosing a story, you will be helping create a movie, your group will split up the responsibility. Each team member will investigate three elements of story structure, theme and plot, turning point/conflict, and characters and setting. You should be taking notes in order use the information you gather to create your movie summary. Remember, your group must research all of the elements of story structure so choose fairly amoungst yourselves.
4. Below are your groups and the links you will explore:
Here are some links I would like all of the groups to take a look at:

5. After you and your team have explored all of your links you will come together as a group in order to create your summary in google documents. You must bring all of the elements you have explored together to create a summary of the book you have chosen.
6. Your final product will be a summary of the story you have chosen that will help the Hollywood producer make a movie. You must include all the elements of story structure that we have discussed. Look to the evaluation page to see what exactly is expected of you.
**REMINDER: These links will inform you about the elements in story structure. They will not give you a summary of your story itself, however, they will guide you in your process of creating this summary.
