This week students are working on creating their two-minute pitch for their NHD projects. For students unable to present to class this week, you are required to write your two-minute pitch as a two-page pitch.
In your Two-Page pitch, you must have:
1. An engaging and exciting beginning to grab the readers' attention. (At least one paragraph - you can use a vivid description, an interesting fact, or an anecdotal story about your inventor / invention / innovation.)
2. Thesis Statement - Your thesis statement must include:
A. A description of the innovation
B. It's impact on people's lives
C. How this innovation changed American history
3. You need to describe your research. What are at least three secondary sources you have used so far? How have these secondary resources helped you? What are at least three primary sources you have used so far? How have these primary sources helped you?
4. What type of project are you going to create for NHD? Explain how you will present your topic in this project type? Why did you choose this project type? Why do you think it is the best project type for presenting your topic? What steps will you need to take to complete this project?
5. Why did you choose this topic? Why should people be interested in your topic?
This two-page pitch is due on Wednesday. Please email me your pitch: ackermancarl@hotmail.com
