Puritan+Literature

In order to explore the world of Puritan Literature, we are going to begin by researching the world of the Puritans in early America. Specifically, we will be focusing on the following:


 * // 1. Religious Beliefs //**
 * // 2. Government //**
 * // 3. Daily Life //**

For each of the above topics, you need to have a minimum of 3 slides in a slideshow presentation. Use the following tips in creating your slideshow.

(You will be invited to a google presentation so you can work collaboratively with your group.)

Tips for creating slideshow presentations: 1. You should NOT copy and paste information from sources! You should read the information and put it into your own words. 2. You should NOT wri te in full sentences or paragraphs! You should write in bulleted phrases so you can elaborate when you are giving your presentation. 3. You should include visuals, such as pictures or videos. 4. You should include a bibliography slide where you cite your sources. 5. You should include a title slide. 6. You should proofread your slides to make sure everything is spelled correctly.
