Starting Points – Ideas for Author Project
You are preparing a presentation to your class about the author. See Project Ideas below for some ideas on different ways to present your information.
An author is visiting your school. You are in charge of writing an author biography for a poster announcing the visit and /or introducing the author.
You have been hired to design a website for a local author. The author wants you to visit other author websites to see how they are designed and what information they include.
You are interviewing an author for the Discovery Channel. You must research the author so that you can ask important questions.
You are in charge of preparing an author display for a local bookstore. Your display will include both the author’s books and a poster about the author.
