The Louisiana Bookletfrom Greg EnglishOak Park Middle School During the year my students put together a booklet on Louisiana. It is a project that many teachers use. Our booklet is a 75+ page booklet. The booklet will contain sections on the flags, government, food, politics, buildings, and local color. I furnish the materials the students use for research. Over the years I have put together folders of dittos of each item requested, piece together the copy to be used, and much more due to limited time in the Applied Tech lab and/or library. Below is a checklist of what is required for our booklets. Add, subtract, or modify to meet your students I have hyper-linked my work sheets to the items listed below. needs.
