Refer to the PBL website for extra online articles.

19. Step 1: Make Venn diagrams. • Complete the Venn diagrams with information from the article “Korea: Past and Present.” • To complete a Venn diagram, fill in the left and right sides of the diagram with information about each topic. • Information that is similar or shared between the two topics goes in the middle where the two circles overlap.

Your news report must include an introduction, middle, and ending. Use the writing guide on pg. 22 to help you write a news report.

Presentation Tips • Create a larger copy of your Venn diagram to use during the presentation. • Draw or find pictures from the Internet or in magazines and newspapers to include in your presentation. • Point to certain sections of your Venn diagram during your presentation so that the audience knows what you are talking about. • Write out your report on small cards that you can refer to during your presentation. • Practice your presentation ahead of time so that you become familiar with your report and the expressions that you will use.
