Instructions- Write an obituary

Write an obituary regarding the person you have been assigned. An obituary is a notice of a death that typically includes a brief biography of the deceased person along with other important information about this person’s life. Traditionally it would have been published in a local newspaper.

Read the article and then work with your group to determine what is the most important information you can convey about this person- what makes him or her interesting and what contributions did he or she make to the revolution?

In writing this notice, you should include the following: the announcement of death and the important details and life events. Normally an obituary would include other information such as the family members and the funeral arrangement, but since you do not have that information, omit it.

Work with your group to compose the obituary. One person in your group should be responsible for typing the answer in the form as indicated.  You are submitting one response for the entire group.  Be sure to include all of the names of the people in your group.  The answer should be about 250-300 words.
