Project+Instructions

Each student will be responsible for creating a wikispace page that includes an interesting picture, and an explanation below the picture. The photo should show something interesting which can be explained using physics. Your explanation should thoroughly explain everything occurring in the picture, as well as give some background information about the physics topic. Someone who knows nothing about physics should be able to see your picture, read the explanation, and understand what is occuring in your picture completely.

1 Photo- Your photo can be chosen from the internet (and referenced) or you may take the picture yourself with your own camera
 * Guidelines**:

Although you should do a lot of research about your picture, it should be written in a way that a middle school student could understand. You may need additional pictures and visuals to help explain your Photo of the day.

3 Categories- You must find 3 physics concepts in which to categorize your photo, and you must list them on your page. Then you must link them to their corresponding category page. On the category page, you should list your page's title, and link it back to your page.

4 References- Your page must include a section with full MLA cited references. You should have multiple types of sources; book, internet, magazine, etc.
