i itened to write an essay
and mostly get my information from the internet.
For my multi-genre project, I will need more information about Estevanico Dorantes. The diary entry will be as creative as possible like staining the paper with tea bags and burning some of the edges of the "old" paper. The 5 genres I've picked are Skit, Timeline, Diary Entry, Description paragraph, trivia game, and maybe map of discovery. So the timeline is finished.
~christina park =]
I have four questions
1. Does the timeline have to have 3 facts or its not required??
2. Can I make little flaps so that the questions can be written or typed on the flaps and the answers will be on the paper??
3. Is the map of discovery, the discoveries the explorers found?
4. Is the descriptive paragraph just about the explorer, such as when was he born, when did he die, what boat/ship he took to discover that land, etc..?
I hope other people can look at this comment just to see if their concerns or questions are listed here.... hehe..

The five genres that I plan to write about are:
1. interview of main character
2. despriptive paragraph
3. one page essay
4. timeline
5. diary entry
1.For the interview I plan to ask my explorer, thing related to voyages than things personal.The reason is because I find personal life, too repetive in this project.
2.For the desriptive paragraph I have the same questions as Christina has.
3. For the one page essay I plan on talking more about his personal life.
4.For the timeline I think that its better to choose the most important things in the explorer's life than every detail, so thats what I'm going to do.
5.For the diary entry, I plan on writing a mix of personal and voyage life.
The 5 genres I will be working on are
1.Information Poem
2.Formal Letter
3.Trivia Game (Wheel of Fortune)
4.Diary Entry
5.Obituary
1.For the poem, I will be expressing what it was like upon landing after months at sea.
2. For the Formal letter he will be reporting to the king and how he is doing in his expedition.
3. The Trivia Game (wheel of Fortune) will have some questions of my explorer.
4. The Diary will outline his mounths at sea.
5. In the Obituary will be saying what he did for a living and how he died.
H.W-Project plan:
The 5 genres i planned to use in my project are:
1.Poem: I would put little informations about my explorer in each stanza and try to make it look like a poem.
2.Timeline: I would put his life down all the way from when he was born to when he died.
3.Interview: I would think like my explorer and talk like it to make it look really like i interviewed him in the past.
4.Newpaper story: I would put a artcle about him and write like it happened just right now and i'm really standing there at the scene.
5.Letter: I would write about things that makes me curious about him and reasons why he did what he got famous for.
The statement of process:
Everything is going alright except that i'm not done researching. since i'm not, i'm not sure that i would have informations for my 5 genres.
the 5 genres I intend on writing about are:
(1) a skit
(2) a trivia game
(3) a time line
(4) a diary entry
and finally
(5) a song
the skit will be about what he was famous for, to get a general feeling of why he is revered. I want the trivia game to basically more of the uncommonly known to the public. the time line to show when he made his discoveries. The diary entry will be made to look like it belonged to the 12 through thirteen hundredth century and finally the song is to be about his lifetime story.
my 5 are
1.time line
2.skit(maybe)
3.song
4.others
5.narrtive story
The first genre I plan on doing for this project is a picture of my explorer. The second genre I plan on doing is a timeline of my explorers life. The third genre I plan of doing is a descriptive paragraph on my explorer's life such as what christina said before me about the question.The fourth genre i plan on doing for my project is hopefully if I can find a birth certificate.The last genre I choose is map of discovery. I have so far sent emailed my self links in class on friday and plan on working alot on this project on wendseday
My 5 Genres Are...
1) Newspaper Obituary
2) Timeline
3) Diary Entry
4) Formal Letter
5) Descriptive Paragraph
If I have enough time, I will try to add one of these
Song, Informatioal Poem, or Birth Certificate.

So Far...
So far I have been doing pretty well. I heve gotten websites that gave me a lot of good information on Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo, my explorer. I am about ready to get out of the reaserching stage and start working on the actual multi-genre project. I hope that everyone else is doing good too!

i will plan on my multi-genre project to do a descriptive paragraph, a map of discovery, a diarty entry, a narrtive story, and an interview of the explorer
I will be doing the informational poem,a skit, a birth certificate, a map of the discovery, and an interview of the explorer.
I actually didn't write down my recources so i don't have a works consulted.
I forgot your answers, can we use a camera for the skit, how does the map of the discovery have 3 facts, and what are the rules like size -- font and not double spaced.
