Leadership Scrapbook
Leadership offers many essential lessons that one will take with him/her well beyond the walls of The Dalles High School. In order to reflect upon the many lessons that you have learned, you will be required to produce a Leadership Scrapbook. This book will make up a large part of your overall grade for the First trimester. The following is a list of what each page should consist of:
Side A Side B
Cover: Title – top of page
Leadership 1st Trimester 2017
Full Name – bottom of page
(Decorate with an appropriate theme – Riverhawks, school spirit, The Dalles High School, etc.)
Each page must be numbered at the bottom corner
Note: Both sides of your book should be covered
Page One: Table of Contents
(This page should have a creative border on it.)
Page Two: Caught in the Moment
A & B Pictures of you working on different projects (i.e. Think Pink Week, posters, classroom lessons, Helping or playing in intermurals, etc.)
Describe the pictures with at least three to four sentences describing the following:
n What were the assignments or goals?
n Why was it important to the school?
n Decorate your page with photos of the different events, or sketches/stickers which are applicable.
Page Three: Time Magazine Cover
Side A: Put your cover with the picture on it
Side B: Write a cover story article, which is the follow up to the cover of the magazine.
n You are to develop a future TIME magazine cover that features you on it and contains a companion feature article.
n The magazine cover should have the chronological date and year which you want to make the cover of TIME.
n Don’t worry if you are not an “artist”. Words or simple graphics can be used to create a neat looking cover.
n The banner in the lower right corner is for an event of world or national importance that you predict will happen at the same time.
n Your personal cover story article (side B) should be written as if a TIME reporter interviewed you. It should talk about who you are, your personal background, how you worked hard over the years to get to the position that you have earned, and should include your plans for the future.
Page Four: Goals For the Future
A & B Use a bulleted list with a creative border
Must have at least your top five (realistic) goals – not materialistic goals like “I want an Escalade”. Things like “I will get a part time babysitting job,” or “I will get an A in math this year.”
(Each goal must have 3 steps you will do to reach this goal.)
Example: I will get an A in Math this year.
1. I will complete all of my assignments and turn them in on time.
2. I will study with a group before each test.
3. I will make time after school to see Ms. Delaney if I have questions.
