The Power of a Penny!
//Overview of the Project://

The Silver Sword was our novel study this year. From that, we went on to study Anne Frank and the Holocaust. This study included numerous discussions, reading comprehensions, great research projects and watching Anne Frank : The Diary of A Young Girl. We ended the unit with the documentary, Paper Clips. This documentary sparked great interest in our students. You could kind of say, "It opened thier eyes." They asked if they could do a similiar project and came up with the idea of not one paper clip for each murdered Jew, but one penny....hence The Power of A Penny has begun. As founders of this project, your assignment is to prepare an assembly presentation ( the 5 Ws),to present to the entire school making them aware of our mission and, as well, to propose an idea on how to choose students for the actual trip to Poland.
