Step 2
The group members will share the tasks among themselves.
Step 3
The information that will be provided by the following members should be typed and printed when complete. Please note that any style or font can be used in completing the book. The only material that shouldn't be printed is the cover pages of the book.
Step 4
One member will create the covers (back and front) of the book using cartridge paper.The back of the book can be style to the design of your choice. The front cover of the book should include a creative title related to the topic (food chain and food web), the authors name, the teachers name and the due date.
Step 5
The same member of the group mentioned previously will write the introduction, acknowledgement and table of content of the book. The introduction of the book should include the purpose of making the book and a brief overview of what the books entails. The introduction should follow the front cover of the book, labelled number 2. The Acknowledgement should include the appreciation of people who helped in creating the book and should be on page three (3). The content page should include the content titles and the page number to where the contents can be found. The table of content should be on page four (4).
Step 6
For member two of the group, you will complete the first part of the content for the book. The first page of the content should include the title (What is a food chain? / Food chain) and a brief overview, summary or definition about the topic. Pictures (three pictures from different habitat) should be included and different pictures of food chain should be included. An example of three habitat is shown below. The information should be presented on three pages and follow directly after the content page.
