Today we will be moving on to creating the rough draft of our reports. Below you will find the template for the report. A template helps you to structure your writing and organize your thinking. Your task is to look through your background research section and fill in each section of the report template in writing that is all your own.
Creating your rough draft will likely take more that on class period, and may require additional research on your part. By the end of the day you should have started your rough draft by creating a new document and sharing it with me (hkil2e2n@gmail.com) the same way you shared the Research document. Your Rough Draft should be 1.5-2 pages of text, if you include images it can be slightly longer.
Below is the **OFFICIAL** template for your google document (your document MUST be in this same format).
START A NEW DOCUMENT TITLED "Period 1-LastName-The Science of Fireworks ROUGH DRAFT"
**To start a new document you will need to navigate back to google drive, select create, select document. This new document will be saved in the same place as your background research.
