Bienvenidos a los estudiantes de Español Tres y Cuatro Below you will find links to the library catalog, the best databases for these projects, and some presentation tools. If you scroll to the bottom of the page, you'll find your assignments for Sra. Moffat Spain and Mexico, and Sra. Cabiles for Mexico. As always, please ask Mrs. PH if you have any questions. Buena suerte. Here is the Library Catalog for you to see which books we have in the library about Mexico and Spain. LIBRARY DATABASES AND SEARCH ENGINES First, check out the library databases. Username: jfkchs and Password: lancers for ALL databases. You can use any of them here, but these are the best databases for your needs:
Instructions: Use the password "lancers" for each of the databases on this link. Depending on your needs, you may also want to try the Gale Databases. If you haven't used these for other classes, then know that once you sign in to the databases, you should click "Sign in with Microsoft" at the top of the page and log in with your Kennedy email. Then you can save articles, highlight them and take notes on them, send it to your One Drive, etc.  Citing Your Sources: In some cases the database you use will give you the option to cite your source. If it does, choose that and copy/paste it into your bibliography. If it doesn't, here are two great options (better than Easy Bib). Well now you've researched and written and compiled and you know A TON of information about your Mexican state or your Spanish province. Now you need to create a presentation with visuals that will be appealing to the students and your teacher. Powerpoint is old and boring. Prezi is better, but there are also some fabulous presentation tools you can use to spice up that project. And let's face it, everyone wants to see a cool and well-done presentation, right? My faves are Animoto, Blabberize, Plotagon, and Piktochart -- but you know your learning curve and what your teacher wants. So here are some great options for you: Creativity and Presentation Tools
