Saints Project
Miss Bekking has assigned you a research task to do with your patron saint. She would like you to design a bristol board poster showcasing your saint, teaching others about him or her.
Here is the criteria for a successful project:
- Prayer to their saint
- Feast Day
- Birth/Death
- Name what the patron saint is known for
- Why did you choose this saint?
- 2-3 pictures of the saint
- Think of adding a few symbols of the saint (e.g., for the patron saint of music, you could put music notes as a border perhaps)
- About a page summary of their life (birth/death, miracles they performed, when canonized, interesting facts)
- a strong attempt to put information your research into your own words (avoid printing from the internet and gluing it to your display)
- References list
There are MANY published books that will give you much information about your chosen saint. Be sure to check the school library first before going online.
Here are some websites to help you as well:
