Create a board game that reflects your assigned part of speech: adjectives and adverbs, nouns, verbs, prepositions, or conjunctions. Create higher-level questions that are more than just recalling a fact or definition. Your board game can be based on a game that is already in existence such as Monopoly or Trivial Pursuit. Your project must also include typed directions, a definition of the part of speech, and a mini-lesson with at least two examples.

The students will put together a Prezi presentation accompanied with their oral voiceover presentation. The presentation will contain information that the students collected regarding science information researched on their species of choice. The oral presentation must be aligned with the text in which they were presented.

Students selected an ocean animal and began researching in order to learn more. The report should describe where their animal lives, what their animal eats, what the animal looks like, and what the adaptations to the habitat are. The students wrote a report about their animal to present to the class.

Students will of the animal's habitat, orally share their diorama and report.
