Most Influential Person Rubric

1. Costume – 30 points – Two pieces of clothing (hat, shirt, pants, etc.) You must make your costume in some way. No visiting Party City and buying a complete costume. You can buy portions of it though. Must look authentic, appropriate, and homemade.

2. Quotes – 10 points – Two quotes from or about your person.

3. Explanation – 30 points – The first paragraph must be a short biography of your person. In the second paragraph, you will answer the question “Why is your person the most influential person in history?” This portion must be typed.

4. Prop - 10 points – You must build some object of significance in the life of your person. This can be specific to them or their culture. Be ready to tell the class what it is and why you chose it.

5. Map – 10 points – Where was your person born? Where did they die? Did they travel? Did they conquer?

6. Bumper Sticker – 10 points – This must include a picture of your person, his or her name, and a slogan to promote their campaign.

As a class, we will be debating and voting between these individuals in a tournament. You will be given daily grades based on your participation during the presentations.

You will get brackets to fill out before we begin. Although this is an individual project, you may share ideas with one another and prepare for debating by discussing why your person was influential.

YOU MUST BE READY TO PRESENT BY FRIDAY MAY 21.
