Seven Natural Wonders of the World

Your travel agency team has been assigned a world wonder.

Your project assignment is to find 10 important facts about your world wonder. Be sure to have a reference page to document where you received your information from. You must have 3 sources (web, book, magazine, etc. No Wikipedia!)

Bring in art supplies and a picture of your wonder to decorate your brochure. This can be divided between group members. Next class you will work as a team to select the best images and intriguing facts to include in your brochure. Remember travel brochures are created to persuade people to visit a particular place.
