Each team will have five members. Delegation of responsibilities will be handled by each team individually – you may have a “captain” or team leader, you may have co-leads, you may share responsibilities equally. The “Basic” portion of your grade will be based on what each team presents; opportunities for individuals to increase their scores are listed. The poster should be a minimum of 22” x 28” (it may be larger if you wish). White is traditional and usually easier to work with, but there is no required color. Each of your chosen clothing styles should be represented on both the poster and during the presentation.
