Europe the A-Z Vacation
You get to take a trip to a country and
show a PowerPoint presentation on it.
This is a 9 week
project
• You will have 9 weeks to complete this.
–You will have some class time, but you will also
need to spend your own time on it. That is why I
am giving you 9 weeks.
–You will also have some spare time to work on
it in computer class.
YOUR
MISSION
• If you choose to accept it which of course
you will because you have no choice…..
What is this Project?
• You will be given a country in Europe.
-You will need to make a 28 slide
PowerPoint presentation.
-The first page will be the title page. The
last page will be the resources page.
What about the other 26
Slides?
• There are 26 letters in the Alphabet. Yep,
you guessed it. Each page will introduce
the letter and the title of your slide, and how
the title relates to the letter. Plus any
graphics you would like to incorporate with
each slide.
For Example
•E
The Eiffel Tower
• With 2 million visitors the first year and almost 6 million
people a year today, the Eiffel Tower is a real crowd pleaser.
At the crossroads of the entire world, 170 million visitors
have come since its construction.
Are there any other
requirements?
• You have 10 things at least that you need to
include in your presentation.
1. Government
8. Education

have the country’s national anthem playing
softly in the background. One such site is

htm or

Is There Going to be a Test?
• Yes there will be. This is how we will do it.
You will have to make a fill in the blank
worksheet for your presentation that
will allow people to take notes during
your presentation.
You will pick 3 questions that you think are important off your study
guide and submit them to me. I will then make a test out of all the
questions.
We will be doing other things
• While you are working on this project we
will be doing other things in class. Whether
it will be that we are studying Europe, or
some other place. You will need to be self
motivated to get this project done and to
keep it moving along. We will take the last
couple weeks of school to present these.
What Else?
• You can find the information wherever it is.
Whether it is books, encyclopedias, internet,
etc. One word of caution. The internet is
full of false information. Make sure you
can prove the information is correct before
you use it. You must cite your sources on
the resource page. You can just not copy
someone else’s work and use it as your own.
