HW for Wed nite English 4 class. this is due on Wed April 3rd.

1.      You will interview at least one community member who has knowledge or expertise about your project. You will eventually integrate quotes from their interview into your proposal. So it is important to take notes about what you talk about.... you will be asking questions related to your project choice. If the person is someone you know, or someone from the local community, that is probably best. (We are looking for "local experts")--if you have to interview someone whose job is related to your project, that is ok too.

2. You need to research 3-4 websites or articles that have info about your project. You will write up 4-5 sentence summary about each website or article that you choose.
3.  You will be buying "Uninhabitable Earth" by David Wallace-Wells. (its easy to get on-line.) This will be our main text for the rest of the semester. Your beginning reading is pages 1-37—“Cascades.” Once you read these assigned pages, pls write up a 1-2 paragraph summary of what these pages are about. Pls be sure to bring the book to class on Wed the 3^rd.  
4.  We have been talking about potential projects for you to do in the Chabot Knowledge Garden. What I would like you to do is to type up 2-3 paragraphs that answer these questions:
   
   
   1. Please describe in detail, what exactly is your project? (I realize you may not be exactly certain what you want to do, but now is the time to begin to explore that.)
   2. What makes your project innovative? Why did you make the choices you made?
   3. What need is being filled, or what problem is being addressed by your project? What is the issue that you are addressing and why does it matter?
