8th grade social studies classes, created a presentation using Popplet - an online Web 2.0 tool.  Students were asked to choose an ancient culture and research each of the components of GRAPES (Geography, Religion, Achievements, Politics, Economics, Social Structures) for that culture.

Students put it all together with pictures and video in a Popplet graphic organizer presentation - little did they know that they also wrote an essay while doing the project!
