Expository Text Assessment

Create an expository text. Choose a topic that is factual and do some research. You may work with a partner to inform us about a topic in which you are interested.

Your final product must contain at least seven expository text features. One must be a Table of Contents. See the reference chart.

Choose at least three topics from your Table of Contents and create a factual slide about each. Your final product should be at least five Power Point slides.

Create a Table of Contents that contains at least seven categories that would be in an expository text about your topic. Choose three of those seven and create a slide for each.
