Dinner for Five


Today we will utilize the Internet (Google, Bing, or a search engine of your choice) to research the people you listed in today's DO NOW.
After your initial research, narrow down your list of 10 to the lucky FIVE people you want to invite to your dinner party.  You will have to create a PowerPoint presentation explaining your choices.

A title slide which includes your name and block
For each individual you select, create three PowerPoint slides:
Slide 1. Their name and 5 facts about the person
Slide 2. 5 reasons why you chose this person
Slide 3. 5 questions you would want to ask this person
*Each slide should include 1 picture of the person*
 
Use your prior knowledge of PowerPoint to create a professional looking presentation.  Keep in mind the PowerPoint guidelines we discussed in class.  Your presentation may be shown in class.  (Looking for volunteers!)
