Objective: To demonstrate an understanding of the contributions and achievements of West African King of Mali Mansa Musa, by writing a Eulogy or funeral speech.




Writing the Project:

1. Research the contributions and achievements of Mansa Musa.

2. Imagine that you have been asked to give a Eulogy, or funeral speech at the funeral of King Mansa Musa. Write a speech which shows how much you miss him and what he will be remembered for. You may be creative, but it should be as accurate as possible.

3. Write a rough draft, and edit it for mistakes and errors. Write a final copy, in Black or Blue ink or typed. The final copy should be free of errors.

4. Create a coverpage. This should have the title, your full name, the date, and the period. Add illustrations and/or designs. Computer generated pages are encouraged.
