22^nd Mission Project

2014

You have been working very hard to learn about California’s Mission System.  Now it’s time to finish our study of the missions with a culminating project.  You will have two options to choose from.

Mission Project Timeline:

·         Friday, January 10^th: “Good Place” questions and “Need to Know” notes are due (These are worth 10 points each)

·         Monday, January 13^th: Mission Building/Poster begins in class!  Please make sure to have all needed supplies brought to class on, or before, this day!

·         Wednesday, January 15^th: Map due with location clearly labeled (5 points)

·         Friday, January 17^th: Final written proposal due to Archbishop Fonte is due (See attached rubric for point value)

·         Thursday, January 23^rd: Mission Project must be completed by the end of today (See attached rubric for point value)

·         Friday, January 31^st: “My Mission Research Book” is due.  This does not need to be colored. (This is worth 15 points)

Option #1: Build a Mini Replica of the 22^nd Mission

·         The base of the project must be sturdy cardboard or foam board and must measure 16” x 20.”  Please do not use poster board because it will not be firm enough.

·         Whole kits may not be used.

·         Suggested materials for building include but are not limited to: clay, small boxes, card board, wood, Styrofoam, lasagna noodles, and sugar cubes.

·         Other materials to consider are: beans, seeds, small twigs and branches, tiny silk flowers, noodles, corn, moss, bells, or toothpicks.

·         You may add other store bought items such as: bushes, trees, bells, fountains, figures of animals or people, and ground coverings.

·         A large bottle of Tacky Glue would be helpful!  (Any other strong glue is OK too as long as it does not have a strong scent…..no Crazy Glue please!)

·         The name of the mission MUST be displayed somewhere on the mission grounds.

·         Different parts of the missions MUST be labeled.  (Church, kitchen, etc.)

·         Use pictures of the other 21 missions as inspiration.

Option #2: Draw a Detailed Plan/Layout of the 22^nd Mission

·         The plan must be on a light colored, standard poster board that measures 22” x 28.” 

·         It must contain a drawing of how the land will be used from the overhead point of view. 

·         The name of the mission MUST be displayed somewhere prominent on the poster.

·         Different parts of the missions MUST be labeled.  (Church, kitchen, etc.)

·         The more detail the better!

·         Use pictures and layouts of the other 21 missions as inspiration.
