Written Project
General Guidelines
• Answer the first question of the lesson you are writing. Basic 1 students are in charge of Lesson 1.
• Remember: this is your book! It should reflect your experience with the Personal and Professional
Development topics studied.
• The written project should attract the readers’ attention! Use pictures, illustrations, diagrams, tables,
or any visual aid that can make the book more appealing.
• No book is written without research. Read other books, articles, or news that may help you develop
the topic, but don’t forget to mention the source! It’s perfectly OK to quote or to refer to other
authors, but it’s not OK to simply copy other people’s work.

Project Presentation
General Guidelines
• You will have 5 to 10 minutes to present the project to your classmates. Make it interesting!
• Adapt your written project to an oral presentation. That means less written text and more oral
explanation and visual aid elements.
• It’s always a good idea to bring pictures. You can also use memes to illustrate your presentation and
make it fun!
• Find proverbs, sayings, or quotations that relate to the content.
• Be creative! You may add videos, animations, or songs to your presentation.
Guidelines—Basic 1
The goal of the presentation is to have your classmates understand the path you took to draw
conclusions and answer the question. You don’t have to answer all proposed questions in each part
orally, but make sure you cover all parts of the lesson that led you to answer the question “Can you
make time?”

you are going to present. In class, interact with your classmates’ presentations. Be ready to ask and to
answer questions.
