Extra Credit--ALGEBRA ONLY!

Hello Algebra Students!

Here is the detailed description of the extra credit assignment for Chapter 1.  You will be designing a poster for one of the four operations and "math word and phrases" (1.5 NOTES).  You pick one of the four operations, and create a poster displaying the words that mean that operation. 
What kind of poster am I talking about? Think about posters that your teachers have in their classrooms...What do they look like?  How do they get the information to you?  You need to find a creative way to get people attracted to your poster so that they will read it!

Posters must be on a poster board, not just a piece of paper!  (normal size poster board from a store)
Posters must be colorful.
Posters must be neat.
Posters must have name and period on the BACK.

If you create a poster, and you follow the rubric, and receive atleast a 9 on the rubric, you will receive +3 on your test!  We will be having a contest for the posters that will be on display in my classroom!  If you win the contest (there will be four winners in each class), you will receive +7 on your test! 


Here is the rubric for your poster:

Poster is written neatly.                                                                                           4 points
All words and work are outlined in something other than pencil.                          3 points
Name and period are on the BACK                                                                        1 point
Your poster is creative and attractive.                                                                     5 points
