Das Projekt Your project in Unit 9 is going to be about an area of Germany where there are many different things to do, partly because there are many different types of life and landscape: from agriculture to major industry, from large cities to tiny villages, and from beaches to mountains. This is the northern part of Germany, or Norddeutschland. The project will be done in phases throughout the unit, and there are four deadlines to help you stay focused and organized.
You are to include information on the following:
Hannover
The city-states of Hamburg and Bremen
An opera house or theater in one of these cities
Hagenbeck Zoo
The Hanseatic League
The Lüneburger Heide
Sylt or Helgoland (islands in the North Sea)
Specific things tourists should see and do in the area as a whole.
You need to have an original essay of at least 200 words (in English).
You are to find at least 6 pictures relating to Norddeutschland and make a picture essay complete with
captions about what you find. You may include one historical person in your picture essay.
The four deadlines:
Deadline 1: What you know already and ideas for finding information for the project. This is like brain storming; full sentences are not required. (5 points)
*Deadline 2: Your detailed outline of the information you find. Other than the final version, this is the most important part of the assignment; that is why it has 10 points.
Deadline 3: Your rough draft (5 points)
Deadline 4: The final project (written essay and picture essay). (30 points)
The brain storming (deadline 1) is due now. Diese Aufgabe hat 5 Punkte.
