Senior Memory Book
DUE: MONDAY, MAY 5
Journal Template
(optional, if you are not typing your journals)
This is only a suggested outline of journals and
artifacts you MUST have. I can only give you some direction and
suggestions on how to proceed with your journal, but you need to take
ownership of this project for it to have any value. Extra credit (up to
30 points) will be awarded for memory books that exceed the basic
requirements. There is no “assigned topic” – feel free to write about
things that are meaningful to you!
