Part 1: Because it\’s hurricane season, your editor has asked you to put together an informational piece related to storms. Here are her questions:
1. At what point does a storm get a name?
2. Who names the storms?
3. How often is the name of a storm repeated?
4. When is a specific name removed from the rotating list?
5. Using your research skills, narrate the progress of one storm within the last 10 years whose name was removed from the list. Where did it hit? How many people were killed? What were highlights of the damage it caused?
6. One name that was removed longer than 10 years ago was Hurricane Andrew.It struck in 1992, probably before many of you were born. In 250 words, describe what Andrew did and where. Look for photos of the devastation and describe your reaction to seeing them. Do not use material from Wikipedia for this assignment or any other. Some information in Wikipedia is not accurate. It can be a starting point to look for other references. But it is shunned by universities for research.
Part 2: Many of you are somewhat familiar with the Challenger explosion. But few of you were around to see what it looked like in the sky over Central and South Florida. Tell me in depth about the shuttle craft, what its mission was, who was aboard and what was the cause. NPR often is a good source for research, so I ask you to read the following to see if it helps: http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/01/28/464744781/30-years-after-disaster-challenger-engineer-still-blames-himself
Again, this part of the assignment needs to be thorough as if I were hiring you to conduct research for me.
THIS NEEDS TO BE WRITTEN AS IF IT WERE AN ARTICLE FOR A NEWSPAPER AND USING ATTRIBUTION NOT CITATIONS.
