Project AssignmentWie geht's mit dem Projekt?
Remember, your project in Unit 9 is about Norddeutschland. This is 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.

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 detailed outline is due now. This assignment is worth 10 points.

Now go on to Part B.
